Brandon Marshall and I am Athlete Breakup

Brandon Marshall is a former NFL wide receiver turned TV personality who has evolved into a Sports and Media mogul with his chain of global gyms called “House Of Athlete” and his online media channel “I AM Athlete."

There has been some recent drama surrounding the group, following a dispute about money but you won't have to worry about money with these sweepstakes no-deposit bonuses.

What is I AM Athlete ?

I AM Athlete is a podcast and media brand created by Brandon Marshall originally beginning with Brandon Marshall, Fred Taylor and Channing Crowder.

Marshall and his team had great success with their podcast when it launched during the pandemic co-hosted by himself and a few of his friends, former NFL players Fred Taylor and Channing Crowder.

They sky-rocketed through the roof and as they got bigger it started to become clear that the chemistry between the trio had somewhat altered or changed from fluid to aggressive.

Simultaneously we were seeing the growth of the I AM Athlete merch/apparel brand at the beginning and end of each episode, the backdrop to all these locker room conversations were also being hosted at the “House of Athlete” facilities.

Why Did the I Am Athlete Podcast Break Up?

Simultaneously we were seeing the growth of the I AM Athlete merch/apparel brand at the beginning and end of each episode, the backdrop to all these locker room conversations was also being hosted at the “House of Athlete” facilities.

Explaining the situation on the Bussin’ With the Boys podcast, Fred Taylor said: “Because Brandon (Marshall) made the initial investment, he took it upon himself to gain the majority of the control and the ideas.”

In his interview, Marshall agreed with Fred Taylor and said that he, “initially invested $11 million and still employs up to 67 people and continues to steer the vision forward.” On both sides, it's been stated that there are no ill feelings or grudges and that the aim is to keep moving forward.

Brandon Marshall was clearly moving like an owner and not only a paid creative.

Who is on I Am Athlete Now?

Today, I am athlete featuring former NFL players Pacman Jones, LeSean McCoy, and Chad Ochocino.

They cover similar topics in an unscripted weekly discussion including sports, pop-culture, and anything happening throughout the world of sports entertainment. They've recently begun partnering with some of the best online sportsbooks as online gaming continues to rise in popularity.

It's one of the biggest sports podcasts available on the market, and a huge reason for their success is Marshall's dedicatation to the brand.
