  • Marshall Newhouse on NFL Money, Loneliness & Life After Football | Marshall Newhouse | Engel Angle

    Marshall Newhouse on NFL Money, Loneliness & Life After Football | Marshall Newhouse | Engel Angle
    Aug 5 2026
    Mac talks to former long time NFL offensive lineman Marshall Newhouse, who played in the NFL from 2011 to 2020. He played for the Packers, Bengals, Giants, Raiders, Panthers, Patriots and Titans. He was a starter. He was a backup. He played in front of Aaron Rodgers, and Tom Brady.
    Marshall lived the realities of the NFL life, from the money, to the online attacks, insecurity, to its loneliness.

    Mac Engel of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram sits down with Marshall Newhouse, an NFL offensive lineman who defied the odds by playing eleven seasons after being a fifth-round draft pick in 2011. The two dig into the real truth about athlete finances, pushing back hard on the viral trend of retired players downplaying million-dollar contracts, while Newhouse opens up about the surprising loneliness of being a journeyman player bouncing between eight NFL teams. From blocking for Tom Brady under Bill Belichick to navigating social media criticism, CTE concerns, and the financial pitfalls that trap young athletes, this is a candid and compelling conversation about what pro football life is really like beyond the highlights. ★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★

    Mac Engel Goes to Sicily & The WNBA Needs to Get Out of Its Own Way | Engel Angle
    Jul 27 2026
    Mac Engel of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram is back from a exhausting trip to Sicily, where he shares a surprising celebrity encounter, visits ancient Greek and Roman ruins that still influence modern stadium design, and gets inspired by the real-life filming locations from the latest Indiana Jones film. Then Mac shifts gears to tackle the WNBA at 30 years old, arguing that the league's biggest obstacle to mainstream success is not sexism or misogyny, but rather a media and leadership culture too distracted by off-court narratives to focus on a product that is genuinely better than it has ever been. From Caitlin Clark's treatment on the court to Commissioner Kathy Engelbert's media missteps, Mac makes the case that the WNBA needs to get out of its own way and let the game do the talking. ★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★
