60 Minutes' Great Football Profiles

Author: CBS News January 26, 2025 Duration: 42:35
This weekend, four NFL teams will fight for their chance to play in the Super Bowl. To celebrate NFL conference championship Sunday, we're digging into the 60 Minutes archive and sharing three unforgettable football-themed stories. Steve Kroft's 2010 interview with NFL star Drew Brees, the then-New Orleans Saints quarterback, who led his team in 2010 to their first Super Bowl championship. Scott Pelley's 2011 profile of pro football agent Drew Rosenhaus, who - at the time - represented more NFL players than any other agent. The movie character Jerry Maguire was largely based on Rosenhaus. Jon Wertheim's 2022 report on the NFL kicker. Includes interviews with Justin Tucker, a Baltimore Ravens kicker; John Harbaugh, Baltimore Ravens coach; Calais Campbell, defensive lineman for the Baltimore Ravens; Morten Andersen, former placekicker for the New Orleans Saints and Atlanta Falcons; and Connor Barth, who kicked for four NFL teams.
