At the Podium with Patrick Huey
Calvin Anderson on Faith, Mental Health, and the Season That Changed Him.
In this deeply personal and unguarded conversation, NFL tackle Calvin Anderson reflects on the year his life completely fell apart — and the unexpected forces that ultimately saved him.
After returning from a trip to Nigeria, Calvin contracted a life-threatening case of malaria, followed by a rare heart contusion that pulled him off the field and into a season of fear, uncertainty, and emotional unraveling. It was supposed to be the year he stepped into his prime. Instead, it became the year everything broke.
In this episode of At the Podium, Calvin opens up about:
• Surviving malaria and the terrifying moments that nearly cost him his life
• The heart injury that forced him to stop, sit still, and finally address his mental health
• How leaning into faith and embracing vulnerability became lifelines
• The profound love he shares with his wife, Sheree—and the role she played in saving his life
• Why breaking down became the beginning of rebuilding
• What resilience looks like when no one is watching
• The legacy he hopes to leave far beyond football
This is not just a story about the NFL.
It is a story about being human, about surrender, about love, about belief —
and about finding the courage to keep going when everything inside you is telling you to quit.
If you’ve ever lived through a year that broke you, this episode may be the conversation you didn’t know you needed.
