On this episode of the Beyond the Helmet we are joined by former NFL QB and Wisconsin Badger legend, Brooks Bollinger.

Imagine going from back-up quarterback to hero of the Rose Bowl in about 3 months… Brooks lived it. After redshirting his first year at Wisconsin he lived that as a redshirt freshman and then went on to play 3 more seasons for the Badgers. If anyone can relate to the roller coaster of emotions that a college athlete can go through, look no further than Bollinger.

Brooks played 6 NFL seasons before playing in other leagues and eventually working his way into coaching at both the high school and collegiate levels. He opened up about his entire journey with a focus on the mental health aspect that athletes go through. We also talk about his career path after football where he is now a Director at Bell Bank in Minnesota.
