This week, we’re joined by Tyrre Burks—a former pro football player and the founder of Players Health, a company that’s transforming how we think about safety and support in amateur athletics. 

Tyrre Burks has turned personal struggles and near-failures into a powerful narrative that fuels Players Health’s mission. By leveraging his personal story, Tyrre has built trust with investors, partners, and customers, proving that great entrepreneurs don’t just build businesses, they craft stories that inspire belief. 

Originally from Chicago, Tyrre came to Minnesota to play football at Winona State—and he’s been building ever since. Drawing on his own journey through the ranks of amateur and professional sports, he saw the urgent need for a better system to protect young athletes. Now, with over $100 million raised, Player’s Health is leading the charge with an insurance and risk management platform built to keep athletes safe—on and off the field. 

With NIL, media attention, and the business of youth sports exploding, this conversation couldn’t be more timely. Don’t miss it.
