On this episode of The Pure Athlete Podcast, Kaden Elliss (then with the Atlanta Falcons, later signed with the New Orleans Saints) shares his journey from overlooked recruit and aspiring quarterback to NFL player, driven by grit, faith, and relentless belief. Growing up in a household of 12 with seven adopted siblings, Kaden opens up about how adoption shaped his identity, values, and purpose. The conversation explores the true meaning of family, navigating setbacks and recruiting, the benefits of being a multi-sport athlete, faith under pressure, and lessons from the NFL on leadership, discipline, and consistency. More than a football story, this episode highlights purpose, perspective, and the people who shape who we become.
