How An NFL Record Holder Tackles Tough Times
Raheem Mostert (NFL)
As an undrafted free agent, Raheem Mostert was cut by 7 teams before finally making it in the league - but that was nothing compared to the unimaginable tragedy and drama he went through away from the field before he even began. Despite now being the starting RB for the San Francisco 49ers, and the only player ever to rush for over 200 yards and score 4 touchdowns in a Championship Game, he is still as humble and driven as ever as he shares his story and described how he handled his toughest times.
