Missouri HC Eli Drinkwitz has brought in the former Missouri captain to help players reach their dreams of playing football, and to develop a life after football.
We know that only 3% of collegiate athletes will go on to play at the professional level, being able to give these players a plan to a successful life after they’re finished with sports is key.
Washington has transitioned into coaching, and motivational speaking, while also continuing to chase the dream of playing professional football.
