NFL: Huddle and Flow

Michael Vick: Walking in his Truth

The former all-world NFL quarterback and current FOX NFL analyst joins Steve and Jim for a very introspective conversation. Steve did extensive investigative reporting on Vick’s dog-fighting case in 2007. They had a personal working relationship then, and it continues today. However, this is the first time they’ve talked to each other about that ordeal’s impact on their relationship (22:31). Vick also opens up about being self-conscious as a Black QB in his era and how the perception of Black quarterbacks has evolved over time (15:50), why Andy Reid gets the best out of his players (33:06) and his work on voting reform for ex-felons (29:34).<p> </p> Learn more about your ad-choices at <a href="https://www.iheartpodcastnetwork.com">https://www.iheartpodcastnetwork.com</a><p>See <a href="https://omnystudio.com/listener">omnystudio.com/listener</a> for privacy information.</p>

Steve Wyche and Jim Trotter call on their experiences as two black men with 40-plus years combined covering the NFL to bring listeners unfiltered, enlightening, and entertaining conversations about important issues involving the league both on and off the field. Steve and Jim will also talk to the newsmakers and influencers who have impacted both American sports and American culture. It’s the intersection of sports and society that we hope will lead to ongoing, positive and engaging dialogue.
