Former Jets offensive lineman D’Brickashaw Ferguson said on the NFL Players: Second Acts podcast he plans on attending nursing school.
The 39-year-old, who retired from the NFL in 2016, spoke about his journey on the podcast. He discussed how his confidence was low since he hadn’t taken any science classes since high school.
He then enrolled in community college to take “one class at a time” and take the prerequisites needed to apply to nursing school. Ferguson completed all the coursework, and multiple schools accepted him. He plans to go in the fall.
