He breaks down his Welcome to the League moment, his first interception off Drew Brees, and the legendary Thomas Davis pregame speech. Then R.J. reveals how he transitioned from football to the Secret Service, what it was like protecting Vice President Mike Pence, and what he experienced while on duty during the January 6th riot. A must‑listen episode full of stories you won’t hear anywhere else.
