On the latest NFL Players: Second Acts podcast, Peanut and Roman welcome one of Roman’s former Saints teammates - and fellow Saints Hall of Famer - receiver Marques Colston to the show. They start out clearing the air over an incident between Peanut and Marques during a game in the 2015 season. It’s the first time they’ve seen each other since then, and they hash it out on the podcast. Roman and Marques reminisce about their days playing together, and the thrill of winning Super Bowl 44. Marques shares his journey from 7th-round pick, to almost being cut during his first minicamp, to eventually becoming a Saints Hall of Famer. Always a forward thinker, Marques also shares how he started working on his post-NFL second act as the CEO of an Arena League team while still racking up 1,000-yard seasons. He also discusses how he became a professor at the University of New Orleans, the milestones he just missed on, and why he hated facing Peanut on the field.
