How God Used a Broken Neck to Redefine David Pollack’s Purpose

David Pollack, Georgia Bulldog legend and former ESPN analyst, joins the Built 4 More Podcast for one of the most powerful conversations yet. In this episode, David opens up about the moments that shaped his faith, his family, and his purpose far beyond the football field.
He shares the inside story of his career-defining play at Georgia, the injury that ended his NFL career, and the transformation that followed. David also reflects on how Coach Mark Richt helped lead him to Christ, what he learned when everything he built was stripped away, and how his wife’s brain cancer diagnosis became a testimony of faith, healing, and strength.

This conversation goes beyond stats and headlines. It’s about what it means to walk through pain, surrender control, and lead your family with faith when life doesn’t go as planned. From the locker room to the living room, David’s honesty and conviction reveal the kind of leadership that’s built to last.

Hosted by Pastor Joby Martin and Denny Thompson, Built 4 More shares stories of faith, leadership, and purpose from athletes and coaches who are living it out every day.
