Former NFL Player Justin Forsett On His Hustle To Entrepreneurial Success After Football

Forbes

Justin Forsett, football player-turned-entrepreneur, knows what it feels like to have the odds stacked against him, from last-minute rejections during his college recruiting days to trying to find his fit with seven different teams since being selected in the seventh round of the 2008 NFL draft. But these challenges—along with a commitment to his family and faith—have led to the entrepreneurial success he has realized today. The thick skin he developed playing football has helped prepare him to venture into a world where just 1% of venture-funded startup founders are Black.

B R

The Baltimore Ravens released veteran running back Justin Forsett on Saturday, according to an announcement from the team's official website. The 30-year-old played 10 games for the Ravens in 2015, running for 641 yards and two touchdowns on 151 carries. Forsett suffered a broken arm that ended his season in November, and he's at an age when running backs generally begin declining—if they haven't already.

Justin Forsett Blogs About 1,000 Yards

Baltimore Ravens

This blog was written by Ravens running back Justin Forsett, and originally posted on SportsBlog.com through a partnership with NFL Player Engagement. One thousand yards as a running back. It's been a goal of mine since I tied up my shoelaces and put on my pads and my jersey to play this game in the NFL. Every year I've gone out with that mindset, but I haven't really had the opportunity to reach the mark. Now, being able to do it after seven years, it's big. It was a long wait, which I think made it that much sweeter. Maybe my next individual goal will be to get to 1,500. That would be nice!
