Sylvester Williams’ journey to the NFL is anything but ordinary. After a less than easy upbringing and playing just one season of football, he worked in a radiator factory before enrolling at Coffeyville Community College in Kansas. He paid his own way and quickly made waves on the football field, recording 52 tackles and earning all-conference and honorable mention All-America honors. He transferred to North Carolina, became an All-ACC player and was selected 28th overall by the Denver Broncos in the 2013 NFL Draft. After a successful career that included a Super Bowl 50 championship, stops with several other NFL teams and a return to Denver, Sylvester retired in 2020 and built successful careers in toxicology testing and real estate. Today, he’s a father of four, real estate professional and sought-after speaker.

He grew up in a small town in Colorado, stayed in state for college, was drafted 20th overall in 2007 and tripled the length of a typical NBA career by staying in the league for 12 years.   

Jason Smith thought he was going to be the only “short” person in his family when he got to 5’10” in middle school and started at that same height his freshman year of high school. By the end of that school year, he was 6’6” and just kept growing. By the time he was done, he was 7 feet tall and had schools from throughout the country knocking on his door. He decided to stay in state and attend Colorado State University so his family could be close and drive to all his games (home and away).  

In 2007, Jason left CSU early and entered the draft. The 76’ers took him at #20 and Jason saw action in 76 games as a rookie. From there a journeyman career began with stops at many different teams including the Hornets, Knicks, Magic, Wizards, Bucks and Pelicans. Along with all the trades came a few injuries and many hours in the training room.   

Jason retired in 2019 and focused on being a father and husband as well as doing some media work with the Wizards. He’s also collecting accolades in retirement: in 2026, CSU inducted Jason into their Ring of Honor and his jersey hangs in the rafters at Moby Arena in Fort Collins.

Ryan Sutter's name is usually connected with a reality TV show, but before the words "Trista and Ryan" became a household phrase, Ryan was a Vail firefighter who grew up in Fort Collins, played football at the University of Colorado as a walk on and was drafted by the Baltimore Ravens.   

His NFL career didn't last very long, in fact on the field it was just a few seconds of a regular season game and then jumping around to a few teams. Ryan also played in NFL Europe before calling it quits and becoming a firefighter in Vail.   

Then the rest of his story began as a friend volunteered his name to be a contestant on a new show called the Bachelorette. He had no interest in being on a reality TV show but went to Los Angeles anyway. Turns out he was the last one standing and marrying Trista in a lavish made-for-TV wedding. 

Today Ryan is a Denver firefighter, he and Trista are navigating raising two teenagers and are still getting pulled back into reality TV appearances here and there.    

Listen to Ryan’s story and conversation with Susie Wargin on the Cut Traded Fired Retired Podcast.
