NICK FERGUSON​​
10 YR NFL VETERAN
Nick Ferguson
After leaving the inner city of Miami, to pursue my dreams of Playing in the NFL, I wouldn't have imagined the journey it would have carried me on....
​
Growing up in the inner city of Miami has
presented me with many obstacles to
overcome. No matter how bleak things might
have looked or what odds might have been
stacked against me. One thing is for sure, I
never stop fighting for what I want. I went
from a college walk-on at Morris Brown
College to a scholarship student-athlete at
Georgia Tech, because it was imperative for
me to display my athletic abilities on a larger
platform. This mind set has pushed me to
chase my dreams over 3 continents by way of
the CFL (Canadian Football League), NFL Europe
& finally the NFL. I took that same approach
to my education when I decided to give up a 50 thousand dollar workout bonus to return to Georgia Tech and earn
my undergrad degree in Business. For my hard
work and persistence I was presented with an
award from the NFL because of my scholastic
achievements. As an undrafted player in the
NFL I’ve seen my fair share of highs and lows
in my 10 year career and this has provided me
with a keen sense of the inner workings in NFL. The knowledge gained on & off the field has led to continued work as a Sports Analyst. The transition from a professional athlete, into sports broadcasting has allowed me to recreate the passion I had on the field yet as an analyst, providing a unique visual portrayal through the lens of an undrafted player finding success in the NFL.
