The Pivot Training Camp tour is coming to an end but couldn’t end without a stop to visit Houston, home or a Roomie QB and the NFL’s highest paid tackle!!
Joining us today on The Pivot is Laremy Tunsil, one who is no stranger to the spotlight and one of the best left tackles currently in the NFL. Laremy sits down with Ryan, Channing, and Fred to talk about his journey of overcoming adversity since his days at Ole Miss, charity work for single mothers, the truth behind draft night and what he believes will determine his legacy as a NFL player.
The Texans are a team that Fred believes arguably had the best night out of all 32 NFL organizations this past offseason. With the addition of #2 overall pick QB CJ Stroud, focus will be on the offensive line more than ever.
In 2016, ten minutes before the NFL Draft was set to start, Tunsil’s Twitter account was hacked and showed a video of him wearing a gas mask and smoking from a bong. A moment Tunsil considers his biggest pivot thus far, but a moment that forced other teams to pivot and select other players over his projected #1 overall pick. Laremy says this moment was a teachable one but also one that motivated him to give his all to whatever team took a chance on him, which ended up being the Miami Dolphins.
Still beloved by Dolphins fans as his trade to Houston resulted in them getting several key players that now make that team a Super Bowl contender in the AFC, Laremy is ready to solidify his legacy not just to be one of the best at his position but to win a championship too.
Getting further into the X’s and O’s, Laremy says that he’s excited to see what the Texans can do this year and is dedicated to giving his all to winning the AFC South Championship. As captain of the Texans, Laremy talks about how he supports CJ Stroud and what his encouragement has been to the highly anticipated rookie. Tunsil reassures the guys that CJ will do well and that he has the correct mindset. However, one thing Tunsil isn’t sure about, is his legacy career wise if he doesn’t win a championship for the Texans.
As a result of various controversies including one with Lindsey Miller, his ex-stepfather, Tunsil has been more reserved in terms of developing trusted relationships and allowing new people into his life. Two of those individuals who have remained through his corner through it all have been his mother and brother. Motivated by his mother’s support and loyalty, every year he makes it his mission to help single mothers within the community.

Would be amazing if y’all could get Troy Polamalu on this podcast. Him and RC were my childhood, we need a reunion🤞

[@AbigailRTeh]

Laremy being open and vulnerable. Have to give him respect for the stuff he has had to go through in his life. Wow! You guys really know to make your interviewees relax and tell their stories and we hear yours as well. Kudos to Pivot and keep inspiring us with these guys' stories.

[@AbigailRTeh]

Music? Laremy is in the right place in Houston to link up with producers and artists

"Well, well, Abi, what's the deal with your cameo on the Pivot Podcast? Seems like you've ventured into uncharted content waters." 😄🎙️

[@charlesmontgomery3692]

They do the research, they ask the right questions and they keep the guest calm and relaxed both physically & mentally. The Pivot sets the bar high

Has anyone asked The Pivot Podcast a question on that creator connection website ThoughtSpace AI where you get instant answers to questions and can watch where he discusses it? Ok, was just wondering.

[@cierapryor7817]

RIP Alex Collins 🕊🏈. Great interview

[@woodh.8704]

The real answer i heard... The Pivot: What do you want to do after football? Tunsil: I'm interviewing for y'all now cause you all are going to be around for 20 plus years! Great interview.

Good interview! Let’s go Texans

Had no idea Laremy Tunsil was this chill and cool of a person! That’s why this show is awesome 👏🏼 Side note: Not sure if anyone said this before but Channing looks like the Jeff Dunham puppet Achmed 😂

[@pjoyn4038]

I am noticing there are a lot of sports podcast -new ones. I will only view one podcast. Everyone can podcast, but only one group can Pivot. Keep doing what your doing...and thank you for awakening the sports fan spirit in men - with a plus.

Glad to see after all the slander he got coming out for that kush video. hes proving that doesnt define who he is as a player nor person. just something he was doing at the moment of the video. glad hes getting doing well and getting that pay back from the league for letting him drop in the draft.
