Keith Fitzhugh: Train Conductor

Keith Fitzhugh had a rather frustrating career in the NFL. He was once a top prospect from Mississippi State, but didn’t make it to an NFL team right away. He was twice cut from the Baltimore Ravens and the New York Jets. After he realized there was a possibility he could not make a great career in football, he became a railroad conductor instead. It is pretty amazing that he is now a terminal superintendent with the Atlanta Norfolk Southern Railway instead.

Vince Young: Development Officer

If you keep up with college football, there is a good chance that you remember how Vince Young helped the Texas Longhorns get the national title over the USC Trojans. This happened in 2006, the same year he was the runner-up for the prestigious Heisman Trophy. Unfortunately, his NFL career was short-lived and he blew the $34 million he made while in the league. He went back to college and began a career as a development officer at the University of Texas – Austin.
