Overcoming Injury and Life After the NFL (w/ Mohamed Massaquoi)

Life has thrown a lot more than passes at former NFL wide receiver, Mohamed Massaquoi. Born in the United States to parents from Liberia, Mohamed grew up in Charlotte, NC, became a star receiver at the University of Georgia, and was a second round draft pick of the Cleveland Browns. Unfortunately, serious concussions cut his NFL career short, and a couple of years later, an ATV accident resulted in the amputation of his left hand. 
 
As The Dude abides, so Mohamed perseveres. After football and after the accident, Mohamed is pushing himself to new heights and new accomplishments in the field of business. He studied at Harvard Business School and is earning his Masters in Industrial-Organizational Psychology at the University of Georgia. The company he founded, Vessol, helps organizations navigate through change, improve their diversity and inclusion, and build stronger teams. 
 
Mohamed and I spoke recently in my basement about his incredible journey. Connect with him on TwitterInstagram, or LinkedIn.
