61. Kamu Grugier-Hill: Journey to the NFL, winning a Super Bowl, and his purpose in life.

Kamu Grugier-Hill is a Native-Hawaiian professional football player for the Arizona Cardinals from the island of Oʻahu. This soon-to-be  8-year veteran in the NFL played college ball for Eastern Illinois where he earned first-team all OVC honors. In 2016 he was drafted by the New England Patriots in the 6th round before going on to play for the Philadelphia Eagles. Kamu is one of only a handful of Hawaiʻi-born players to ever win the Super Bowl during his time with the Eagles when they defeated the New England Patriots in Super Bowl 52. Before getting traded to the Cardinals in 2022, on December 5th, 2021, in a game against the Indianapolis Colts, he set the Houston Texanʻs franchise record for tackles in a single game, with 19 tackles. In this episode we talk about his childhood moving back and forth between islands, how he got into football, his journey to the Super Bowl, life outside of the game, and so much more.
