A.J. Hawk is quite the legend around Columbus, Ohio for his dominance with Ohio State during his years with the Buckeyes. A fearsome linebacker that made quite the career for himself in the NFL, Hawk finished with 644 tackles during his tenure at the professional level and was a staple of the Green Bay Packers defense for much of his time there. Now, Hawk is headed for retirement after short stints with the Bengals and Falcons. But Hawk is aware of the problem many players who retire from the NFL face. Like he mentions in his article, there are a lot of players who simply don’t know what they can do as passionately as they played football and are stuck in sort of a limbo for the rest of their lives in some cases.
