Terry Crews – Football

Terry Crews rose to prominence in football before appearing on television. In the National Football League, he was a defensive end and linebacker for the Los Angeles Rams, San Diego Chargers, and Washington Redskins. He started in 1991 and remained until 1997, when he decided to pursue acting. It was a wise decision, as he rose to prominence with appearances in “Everybody Hates Chris” and “Brooklyn Nine-Nine.” He also served as a judge on “Who Wants to Be a Millionaire” and “America’s Got Talent.” Crews told ReelTalks that the structure and standards of football are similar to those of acting, which helped him transition early in his career.
