Super Bowl Champ Marques Colston on What it Takes to Bring Home the Lombardi Trophy
The Super Bowl is just days away and the Patriots and Eagles are headed into their final days of preparation. Marques Colston, Former NFL Star and Super Bowl champ with the New Orleans Saints, joined us to give us an inside look at what it's like to prepare for the big game.
Colston said players try to keep the routine as natural as possible, but in reality it's nearly impossible. The Patriots have an unmatched level of preparation for the big game. The Saints all-time leader in receiving yards and touchdowns said it definitely gives the Patriots a leg up, but the excitement about making it to the Super Bowl could ultimately be an advantage if the energy is channeled the right way.
Colston is a co-owner of the AFL's Philadelphia Soul. He says it was a natural transition for him because he received advice for life after football while he was still playing. Colston is also on the advisory board for the NFLPA's Tech Accelerator program, which helps players get ready for a new career.
