Eric Weems is the former American football wide receiver for the Atlanta Falcons; having played college football at Bethune-Cookman, the 36-year-old was the Falcon’s best gunner, to say the least. Moreover, he was a return specialist too.

Catching Up With Eric Weems
But Weems believes he is far from retiring just yet; the 36-year-old talked with FHN back in 2019, during which the former Falcons’ wide receiver claimed he still feels like he can compete with anybody.
Eric Weems said,
“I felt like I could compete with anybody. In my mind, it didn’t matter what school you went to; it’s all about your competitive nature. I’ll play against anybody. Mano a mano, I think I can stand and hold my own against any man living on this Earth. I truly felt that playing pro football, college football, high school. When I stepped on that field, no other man was going to outdo me or outshine me.”
When asked if he would consider playing in another league or would like to coach, the 36-year-old asserted he wouldn’t consider any other league other than NFL and admits he can still get back, but said yes to coaching.
Eric Weems said coaching intrigues him big time, and he would like to coach if he gets the opportunity to in the future. He said, “I want to do all things, to go from little league, high school, college, NFL. I think I’d be a really good coach and developer of players, being in an NFL locker room and knowing how it’s done. I know how to bring the knowledge to guys who are younger than me.”
