I thank god every day for that man. And I think one of the most special things is you can impart that viewpoint in the people that you train to be quarterbacks, the kids who come to you, the camps that you run, because you're not.
Quincy Carter once lived the dream as a quarterback for the Dallas Cowboys. But behind the glitz and glamour, his life was crumbling due to marijuana and alcohol addiction. In this eye-opening episode of 'The Addiction Podcast - Point of No Return', Quincy opens up about his struggles and his remarkable path to recovery. After his substance abuse led to his termination from the Cowboys, Quincy faced a tough battle.
Attempts to join other teams were thwarted by his ongoing addiction, leaving him at rock bottom. However, he didn’t stay there. Now 15 months sober, Quincy has turned his life around and is running a quarterback school in Texas. His mission? To instill a drug-free mentality in his students and help them avoid the pitfalls he once fell into. During the episode, Quincy talks about the dangers of legalizing marijuana recreationally and how it can derail lives.
He passionately shares how seeking help and getting sober was the best decision he ever made. His story is a powerful reminder that recovery is possible, no matter how far one may fall. Tune in to hear how Quincy Carter is using his personal experiences to rebuild his dreams and guide others on their journey to sobriety.
