Built by Legacy: Marvin Powell III on Football, Family Standards, and Life Beyond the NFL

On this episode of Nithin's Sports Rush "Built by Legacy: Marvin Powell III on Football, Family Standards, and Life Beyond the NFL", Marvin Powell III joins host Nithin Ramachandra to walk through a lifetime shaped by football and expectation. He recalls watching his father, Jets great Marvin Powell Jr., balance Pro Bowls, law school, and leadership in the NFLPA—then explains how that example set the bar for his own journey from standout high school utility player to USC fullback and undrafted rookie earning a roster spot with the New Orleans Saints. Marvin breaks down what it was really like growing up around NFL locker rooms, blocking for stars like Ricky Williams, and adjusting when the fullback position began disappearing from modern offenses. He then shifts to life after the league: raising two student‑athletes, emphasizing academics first, and passing on the same principles of discipline, leadership, and long‑term thinking that defined his father’s career. The conversation closes on today’s game—who he respects in the current college football landscape, which NFL teams he thinks are built to last, and how he’s building a second career in sports media with South Florida Tribune and Locked On USC. A family legacy, a demanding standard, and an honest look at what it takes to build—and sustain—a career in and beyond football.
