Collin Johnson

Founder & CEO, Beyond-Sports | 6-Year NFL WR

[Collin Johnson @Call_In_Johnson]

I’m grateful to share that I’ll be enrolling at MIT Sloan this fall to pursue my MBA.

At the same time, I’ve made the decision to retire from the NFL.

Football has shaped my life in more ways than I can put into words. It taught me faith, discipline, resilience, leadership, and how to compete at the highest level. I’m thankful for every teammate, coach, organization, and person who helped me along the way.

As I move into this next chapter, I’m excited to continue building Beyond-Sports by launching Founders Academy in partnership with MITdesignX — a venture-building program created for current and former professional athletes building real businesses.

For a long time, athletes have been seen as endorsers of other people’s companies.

I believe we can be the founders, operators, investors, and owners behind them too.

Grateful for the game. Excited for what’s next.

Grateful for the opportunity to speak at Fresno State’s student-athlete career workshop and pour into the next generation of leaders beyond the game.

"The goal is not to live good in the moment, but to live good for life."

Back in February, we hosted our annual Summit event, where players from across the league connected, networked and learned from top industry experts. Here's a look at how it went down.🔥 💼

Today #DaBears were honored to host 12-year-old, Patrick Juarez and his family for a lunch, practice viewing and a post-practice meet and greet! This summer, he was diagnosed with Embryonal Rhabdomyosarcoma, a rare and aggressive cancer. He started chemotherapy and radiation and through all this, he has remained strong and determined.
