On the latest NFL Players: Second Acts podcast, three-time Super Bowl champion Ed McCaffrey joins Peanut and Roman. Ed looks back at Super Bowl 50, where he served as a color commentator for the radio broadcast, and explains how he earned a fourth Super Bowl ring despite only playing in three.

Ed shares what it was like getting cut by the Giants and how that moment pushed him to shed equipment weight in order to get faster and prove he belonged. He shares how that mindset helped him fight for a roster spot with the 49ers, battling to back up Jerry Rice and going toe-to-toe with Deion Sanders in practice. He also breaks down the story behind his signature neck roll, the weekly superstition he carried throughout his career, and why he stuck to bare hands as a receiver. He also reveals his top three Super Bowl moments and the one play from Super Bowl XXXII that still replays in his mind.

Later, Ed talks about the lessons he learned from Jerry Rice, how he brought those to Denver, and what bringing the first championship to the Broncos did for the city and its fans.

Finally, Ed reflects on raising his kids and the approach he and his wife took to support them in chasing their passions without pressure.
