We start at the beginning...growing up in Fostoria, Ohio, being overlooked in recruiting, and carrying that chip on his shoulder all the way to the University of Iowa. From there we get into: • Getting drafted by the Green Bay Packers • Playing alongside Aaron Rodgers • His “welcome to the NFL” moment • What it’s really like tackling Derrick Henry • Becoming a leader and team captain with the Buffalo Bills • The pressure of being an underdog who made it We also talk about the mental and physical toll of 11 seasons in the league, knowing when it was time to retire, and what life after football actually feels like. Then we dive into his next chapter...launching Hyde’s Hail Mary, one of the fastest growing hemp derived THC beverages in the space, and why he wanted to create a better social alternative to alcohol. This episode covers football, leadership, adversity, entrepreneurship, and the transition from athlete to founder. From Pro Bowl safety to building a brand...this is Micah Hyde’s full story.
