On this episode of the Beyond the Helmet we are joined by former Broncos Ring of Fame linebacker, Karl Mecklenburg.

Karl had an incredible journey to get to the NFL. He left a 1/3 scholarship after two years at Augustana College to walk on at Minnesota. It was there he caught the eye of NFL scouts and was drafted in the 12th round. Karl relentlessly pursued making the team and ultimately learned to play all front 7 positions on defense.

Mecklenburg would go on to play 12 seasons in Denver. He totaled 79.5 sacks (3rd most in team history), 1,100+ tackles and played in 180 games. In his time since playing in the NFL, Karl has become a sought after keynote speaker.
