Delanie Walker on his journey to become a pro drag racer

The NFL Players Podcast

EP #20: Former Pro Bowl tight end Delanie Walker joins Peanut and Roman on location in Phoenix, ARI. Roman and Delanie start out sharing a story of how the rapper Future influenced the 2011 Saints vs 49ers playoff game they both played in. Delanie then shares how his love for muscle cars started in his childhood in Southern California, and how it’s turned into a passion that’s fueled his current journey to become a pro drag racer. And just like in the football field, Delanie took a hard hit on the track. He shares how he avoided catastrophe during a recent crash. Delanie also gets introspective about how finding his second act in racing has helped him through a “tough” transition from football. And Delaney talks about his work with the NFL Legends Community, and his other racing hobby that doesn’t include cars.
