Griffin went into retirement with the goal of helping others. The NFL Legends allows him to help other former players and expose them to resources that can prove beneficial.Griffin wants to use motivational speaking as inspiration. He said he’s recently connected with several well-known speakers, included. That meant as much to him as meeting a legendary football player.
This avenue for helping others has long been a part of Griffin’s goals. He’s wanted to be a motivational speaker since he was in high school. His mother, Tangie, wanted him to be a doctor, but he said the sight of blood wasn’t something he wanted to deal with. Griffin has spoken to large companies, but he thoroughly appreciates connecting with youth and encouraging them to express their feelings.
Griffin has found his life after football a way not only to help others, but also a way to help himself.
