Luke Wollet: From NFL Dreams to Battling Addiction and Finding Purpose
I just knew that God's hand was over me this entire time and that he did have a plan and a purpose for all my pain in life, and that it wasn't a matter of him not being with me, it was just a matter of me not seeing it.
Ever wondered how a promising athlete's life can take an unexpected turn? Meet Luke Wollet, a former NFL prospect whose journey took him from the heights of college football stardom to the depths of addiction.
