On the latest NFL Players: Second Acts podcast, two-time Pro-Bowler Jon Dorenbos sits down with hosts Charles “Peanut” Tillman and Roman Harper.
After being diagnosed with an aortic aneurysm following a trade in 2017 to the New Orleans Saints, Jon underwent immediate heart surgery that ended his football career. He opens up about that trade that saved his life, and the three rules he learned in therapy that guide his life. Jon shares why he reveres Sean Payton for the gesture Payton gave him that Jon says gave him closure to his playing career. Jon talks to the guys about his father’s brutal murder of his mother, and shares the emotional details of their meeting after his father’s release from prison. Jon reflects on his passion for performing magic tricks and how it became a source of solace after losing his mother. He also takes us inside the locker room hangout sessions he had with Eagles owner Jeffrey Lurie, and you won’t believe why they met up there. And Jon recalls a memorable encounter when he performed his magic for NFL legends John Elway, Joe Montana, and Dan Marino.
