Former NFL Tight End, Chase Coffman Talks About the Life of a Professional Athlete Before and After Their Playing Career

Chase Coffman is a former NFL football tight end. He played college football for the University of Missouri, earned consensus All-American honors, and was recognized as the best college tight end in the country. He was chosen by the Cincinnati Bengals in the third round of the 2009 NFL Draft. For eight years, he was able to live his dream of playing football in the NFL. Playing professionally required a level of dedication and perseverance that he sometimes wondered if he was capable of, but for Chase quitting was never an option.

With pro-football success, comes money, and he learned some valuable lessons, both good and bad, of how important it is to have good, smart people in your corner. Now that his football chapter is closed, he is dedicated to helping athletes and other leaders excel in their financial planning stories at BMG Advisors.
