I sat down with Fernando Velasco, the Director of Player Engagment for the Atlanta Falcons, to talk his player development journey. From a former player who was impacted by those who were in the role to the one who impacts players through the role, Fernando shares it all.

This was my first in person interview and I am thankful Fernando made time for this player development community.
