Recently, we went to the brand-new NFL Experience Times Square in Manhattan and met former Giants running back Rashad Jennings.

We met Rashad because he was in Manhattan to talk about his book, “The If in Life: How to Get Off Life’s Sidelines and Become Your Best Self” (Zondervan Books). This book is about Rashad’s life and achieving his goal of becoming a running back in the NFL.

In high school he had a problem becoming a running back because he was 270 pounds and had asthma.
