What Do NFL Players Do After Retirement?

That was a question the Founders of Pro Players’ Business (PPB) asked themselves over a decade ago.

The answer came in 2015.

That’s when Pro Players’ Business launched. The business began as a way for former NFL players to earn money after their playing
careers had ended.

OUR MISSION

 

Empowering retired athletes to leverage their reputations and supporting family and friends in utilizing their personal networks to create opportunities for supplemental income through verified, administratively compensated introductions.

A message from Founder Brad Leggett:

“Many former athletes struggle with managing the next chapter of their lives once the action on the field ends.

For many professional athletes, all we’ve ever done was play the game we loved. For me it was Pop Warner, to high school, to college football at USC and then several years in the NFL.

At some point playing comes to an end. For all of us. Then we have to reinvent ourselves. A lot of guys, including myself, struggled with that.

You ask yourself, “What am I going to do now? Where am I going to get that juice to get up every morning that I had when it was about football?”

The idea for Pro Players’ Business came to me when I was helping a law firm meet former NFL players for a concussion lawsuit they
were preparing. As I kept making more and more introductions, I thought wouldn’t it be great to create a business networking site where guys can leverage each other’s contacts. And get rewarded for making those connections.”

With over 15,000 former NFL players already registered in the network, the momentum and money being paid to participants continue to grow.

In fact, thanks to the success of the program, we’ve now opened up registration to the NFL players’ friends and family.
