4th and South - Raheem Mostert on being cut 7 times, 220-yd game, Mike McDaniel's aggressive coaching style

Raheem Mostert joins The Herd with Colin Cowherd for an emotionally resonant and inspiring conversation that traces his extraordinary journey from being cut seven times across seven teams in his first two NFL seasons to becoming a Pro Bowl standout and NFC Championship game hero with a 220-yard rushing performance. Mostert reflects on the profound impact of his upbringing—raised without strong parental figures, grieving the loss of his younger brother to violence, and shaped by a coach who became his father figure—elements that forged his relentless work ethic and mental toughness. He emphasizes the importance of staying ready, even when not starting, crediting his success to playing special teams, maintaining positive relationships, and never burning bridges. Mostert also challenges the myth that leadership must come from the quarterback, advocating for a culture of mutual respect, accountability, and authenticity, while openly discussing his mental health struggles and the healing power of spirituality, nature, and simple rituals like listening to ocean waves. His story is a powerful testament to resilience, purpose, and the quiet strength found in humility and gratitude.
