030 - Inside the Mind of Jordan Matthews: NFL, Faith, Family, and Financial Wisdom
In this powerful episode of Vulnerability Muscle, host Reggie D. Ford sits down with 11-year NFL veteran and Vanderbilt legend Jordan Matthews for a deeply moving conversation on what it means to live with purpose beyond the game. From early memories of his father cheering him on in Little League to his reflections on fatherhood, humility, and faith, Jordan opens up about the highs and lows of professional sports, mental resilience, and becoming a man of impact.
Jordan shares untold stories from his football career—including being the 42nd pick in the 2014 NFL Draft, switching from wide receiver to tight end, and navigating multiple team cuts—all while balancing faith, family, and service. He reflects on the importance of special teams as a metaphor for life, the misconceptions about the NFL, financial literacy, and why vulnerability is the foundation of real relationships.
We also dive into:
* How to thrive in a competitive, high-pressure environment
* The role of consistent father figures in building self-worth
* Breaking free from toxic hustle culture in sports and life
* The power of spiritual grounding and learning Hebrew
* The truth about fame, finances, and fulfillment in pro sports
Plus, Jordan talks about the Vanderbilt Legends Charity Softball Game happening July 11 at Hawkins Field, benefitting Eli's House, a nonprofit supporting women and children affected by poverty and the foster care system.
This conversation is packed with truth, wisdom, and humor—and is not just for athletes. It's for anyone seeking to build a legacy rooted in love, humility, and vulnerability.
