Welcome to Beyond the Jersey, where we dive deep into the untold stories and raw journeys of athletes beyond the game! I'm Dominique Darius, your host, and each week, we'll embark on a journey to uncover the untold stories, passions, and triumphs of athletes that extend far beyond the uniforms they wear.

Join me as we explore the human side of sports, where vulnerability meets resilience, and where the pursuit of greatness intertwines with the pursuit of personal growth.
