Former Ohio State linebacker A.J. Hawk won't be pursuing a roster spot for the first time this season after retiring in early January 2017 as a Green Bay Packer.
In his first season away from football, A.J. Hawk won't be in a broadcast booth like many other players-of-old, but he'll still be behind a mic and in the realm of digital media.
In addition to his own personal podcast The HawkCast, Hawk will be joining the recently announced Barstool Sports football podcast "Laces Out" alongside former Indianapolis Colts punter Pat McAfee and Barstool's football blogger, Jerry Thornton.
