MYRON ROLLE
Description
Dr. Myron Rolle, former NFL player and now neurosurgeon, shares his inspiring journey from the football field to the operating room. In this episode, Myron discusses his experiences as a student-athlete at Florida State, balancing academics with a highly successful football career, and winning the prestigious Rhodes Scholarship, which led him to study medical anthropology at Oxford University.
He opens up about the challenges of transitioning from the NFL to medicine, his decision to leave football after just three years, and how his family and Bahamian heritage shaped his strong sense of purpose. Myron also reflects on the lessons he learned from his time in the NFL and how they continue to guide his work as a neurosurgeon, focusing on concussions and brain health. Join us for an enlightening conversation about resilience, purpose, and finding success in multiple fields.
Each week, Tim and Troy will sit down with interesting people to have thoughtful conversations. The guests will range from celebrities, athletes, academics, doctors, authors, and more. As Tim battles his ALS diagnosis, nothing is out of bounds and there will be nothing left unsaid.
