The Point After (English Edition)

The Point After (English Edition)

The Point After is an all-access look at the NFL, one of the most intense workplaces in sports—and an inspiring story of everything that comes after.

Part curiosity, part lone wolf, the starting kicker is one of the most contentious positions in the NFL. With only one kicker on every roster, it's also one of the most competitive. 

From the age of eight, Sean Conley dreamed of standing before eighty thousand fans with his team's victory balanced upon his right foot. An underdog from the start, Conley overcame impossible odds to become the starting kicker for the University of Pittsburgh and a year later, suited up for the Detroit Lions. After joining the New York Jets he found himself at the pinnacle of his profession, attempting to unseat a proven NFL veteran for one of just 28 coveted spots in the National Football League. It was at this dizzying height that his quest was met with an obstacle no amount of denial or tenacity would overcome. 

Peppered with stories and insights from coaches like Bill Cowher, game veterans and Hall-of-Famers including Barry Sanders and Dan Marino, The Point After is an intimate invitation into the cutthroat world of professional sports, and the deeper wisdom that can only be found through success, failure, and ultimately, spiritual grit.
