The NFL Players' Association is in the fourth year of its externship program which finds offseason opportunities for athletes looking to boost their resumes. Fanatics' Rebecca Kulick and NFL Linebacker Brandon Chubb join Cheddar to reveal what they've gotten out of the experience. Chubb majored in economics and says he's hoping to learn more about business management in his time at Fanatics. He explains the lessons he's learning getting to see the other side of the sports retail and licensing world. He shares how he'll apply the takeaways from his externship the next time he steps on the field. Kulick discusses what the other players participating in the program are getting out of their externships.
