Shownotes Transcript

Buffalo Bills captain and three-time Pro Bowler Dion Dawkins detailed his life and career in a new VladTV exclusive. The football pro talked about his upbringing in Rahway, New Jersey. Despite growing up in a two-parent home, Dawkins admitted to being a troublemaker in school and having to attend a military prep school after not being heavily recruited out of high school. Eventually, the left tackle managed to play Division 1 football at Temple University but suffered a setback when he was arrested following an altercation at a club. After a successful tenure at Temple and a positive showing at the NFL Combine, Dawkins was drafted by the Bills in the second round. Throughout the rest of the interview, Dawkins opens up about his career as an NFL pro, including signing a $53 million extension, Damar Hamlin suffering cardiac arrest during a nationally televised game, the Bills' rivalry with the Kansas City Chiefs, and much more.
