  • Summary

  • “He went into the weight room after his freshman year and he came out a linebacker”
    Geno Atkins was drafted by the Bengals in the fourth round of the 2010 NFL Draft straight out of The University of Georgia. He has spent his last 11 seasons in the league with the team ever since and is now an eight time Pro Bowler. And his star keeps on shining. 

    In this episode we hear from his mother, Sandra Atkins as she takes us deeper into Geno’s story right back to his early football days growing up in Florida, right through draft day up to the present day. And all that’s fallen in between. Including how Geno is a carrier of the sickle cell trait and why - even in such a high pressure environment as the NFL -  he ensures he looks after his health first and foremost.
