Kurt Warner

Blindsided

On this episode of Blindsided, we welcome Kurt Warner. Kurt is a former NFL quarterback who won a Super Bowl with the St. Louis Rams. And in 2017, Kurt was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame. But before all that … before the trip to Canton … before the 32,344 passing yards … before “The Greatest Show on Turf” … he stocked shelves at a local Hy-Vee grocery store in Cedar Falls, Iowa. And what he did in that store is the key to understanding how he transformed from an undrafted free agent into a football legend. Kurt’s story is a story of resilience and it’s powerful to hear. Here’s Kurt Warner on Blindsided.
