About this episode

Ndamukong Suh is a dominant NFL defensive tackle known for his power, discipline, and leadership both on and off the field. A five-time Pro Bowl player, Suh has made his mark not only as one of the league's most feared defenders but also as an entrepreneur and businessman. Over his impressive career, he has built a reputation for his strong work ethic and strategic approach to the game.


In this episode, Jake and Damian sit down with Suh to talk about his journey in the NFL, the importance of discipline, and what it takes to maintain success at the highest level. Suh opens up about his reputation, touching on how past events have shaped public perception, and whether it has affected him personally. They dive into Suh's experiences as a leader, exploring the criticism he faced when trying to be a "cultural architect" for his team and how he handled the pressure of being one of the league’s highest-paid players.


Ndamukong also shares stories from his time playing alongside legends like Tom Brady, discussing their Super Bowl win and the lessons he learned from being part of such a high-caliber team. Beyond football, Suh opens up about his ambitions to expand beyond the sport, including his venture into the business world, where he hopes to apply the same drive and discipline that made him successful in the NFL.


This episode offers a unique blend of sports insights, personal reflections, and motivational takeaways, showcasing how discipline and leadership extend far beyond the field.
