Show Notes
On this episode of the Life of Fitz podcast, host Tim Fitzgerald calls his friend, Ben Leber, a former NFL linebacker and currently an analyst for Fox Sports. Leber was a star running back coming out of high school in Vermillion, South Dakota, but when he came to Kansas State in 1997, he switched to linebacker. It was a very good decision. Leber went on to become a two-time All-Big 12 linebacker, and then a third-round selection by the San Diego Chargers in the 2002 NFL Draft. He played 10 seasons with three different franchises, but after four years in San Diego, Ben and his wife Abby settled in Minneapolis when he played five seasons with the Minnesota Vikings.
