Why Michael Bennett Walked Away From Football and Reinvented Himself as an Artist, Activist, and Designer
Wednesday, 1 April, 2026

On this episode of NFL Players: Second Acts, hosts Peanut Tillman and Roman Harper sit down with former Seahawks defensive end Michael Bennett for a wide-ranging conversation about going undrafted to becoming one of the most disruptive defensive linemen in the NFL. Bennett built a reputation as one of the most versatile and relentless players of his era but when it was time to step away from the game he took a surprising turn into art, culture, and activism. Now exploring new passions in architecture and design, Bennett explains why he’s always pushed himself to the limit in everything he does, both on and off the field. The NFL Players: Second Acts podcast is a production of the NFL in partnership with iHeart Media.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
