Jimmy Graham on playing with A-Rod, Russ, and Brees, Attempting a Rowing World Record, and Flying to Work

EP #19: Cam is back fresh from his trip to Accra, Ghana, which he details on the latest episode of the Off the Edge with Cam Jordan podcast. Cam talks about the Super Bowl connection to his trip to Ghana, and how he got in trouble for what he did to security his first day. He’s then joined by his former teammate Jimmy Graham, who might be the most interesting man in the NFL. Jimmy talks about how cycling kept him in shape during his year hiatus from the game, and how getting hit by a car while cycling motivated him to return to the NFL. Known for his prowess as a pilot, Jimmy shares how he got Pete Carroll’s blessing to fly to work. He's an avid cyclist, an experienced sky diver and race car driver, but Jimmy tells Cam about his preparations for what could be his most death-defying feat yet, which he hopes will set a world record. 0:00 – start of episode 0:11 – Cam teases what’s to come in the episode 0:40 – Cam talks about his trip to Ghana to film a Super Bowl commercial 8:27 – Cam on linking up with Giants legend Osi Umenyiora in Ghana 10:55 – Cam on watching the playoff games while in Ghana 11:19 – Cam shares his thoughts on the Conference championship game matchups 12:44 – start of Jimmy Graham interview 13:38 – Jimmy and Cam talk the evolution of athletes in the podcast space 15:25 – Jimmy and Cam on being the last Saints players attached to the 2009 Super Bowl team 16:50 – Jimmy on playing at “The U” 18:42 – Cam gives Jimmy his flowers for being a great teammate 21:23 – Jimmy on still wanting to play 21:54 – Jimmy on coming back to play after a year off 24:26 – Jimmy on getting hit by a car while biking 26:04 – Jimmy on the car accident being a motivating factor for his return to the NFL 27:28 – Jimmy on his battles with Tyrann Mathieu 28:58 – Jimmy on playing with Aaron Rodgers, Drew Brees, and Russell Wilson 33:31 – Jimmy on his lawsuit against the NFL, and his unceremonious departure from the Saints 35:12 – Jimmy on his relationship with Pete Carroll 35:43 – Jimmy on Pete Carroll allowing him to fly his plane to work 39:58 – Jimmy on flying with the F-16 fighter squadron 42:17 – Jimmy on his plan to row across the Arctic Ocean to break a world record 52:02 – Jimmy on who he thinks will win the Super Bowl 54:56 – Jimmy on the legend of Jeremy Shockey 56:23 – Jimmy on who makes his personal tight end Mount Rushmore 59:35 – end of Jimmy Graham interview 59:42 – Cam wraps the episode   The Off the Edge with Cam Jordan podcast is a production of the NFL in partnership with iHeart Radio.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
