“As a football player, content creator, business leader, and family man, Eric Wood is a man whose ambition I admire and respect. He relentlessly strives for growth and improvement. Ambition propels him forward, but humility and wisdom keep his course steady. This book offers insight that enables its readers to step boldly into whatever is next with a healthy blend of ambition, humility, and wisdom.”

—Kyle Idleman,

“Eric has always been someone I look up to. As his teammate with the Buffalo Bills, I watched him apply the principles discussed in his new book daily. When he was faced with adversity at the end of his career, he chose to continue growing and learning. In this book, there are priceless lessons on how to overcome adversity and attack life daily on your terms. This is a powerful book that will push you to become better day by day.”

—Richie Incognito,
Four‐time NFL Pro Bowl Guard, 16‐year NFL veteran

“There are knowers and there are learners. A knower has stopped learning and thinks they know it all, but a learner remains hungry and teachable. The latter describes Eric Wood. Fortunately, in Tackle What's Next you have the opportunity to glean from his leadership learnings the very same lessons that have allowed him to successfully transition through the seasons of life.”

—Dave Stone,
Former Pastor, Southeast Christian Church

“Oftentimes, folks wonder what it is like to be a professional athlete. Everyone sees what happens on game day, but rarely does the day‐to‐day come to light, especially when the playing days come to an end. Not only does Eric Wood share his personal story of how things ended but also he has found a way for his readers to apply the coping mechanisms and strategies he developed to fulfill their own ‘What's Next.’ Eric's post‐NFL career success comes as no surprise to me, and seeing how he has achieved this success can help many people apply his story to their own situations.”
