“I could go visit people I know, but I already know what they’re about and what they believe in, but [I’m] visiting some people that do things a little bit different than maybe I’ve done. . . . It’s this guy that seems to have had success, or this gal’s had success and their personalities may be a little bit different than mine. So, I’d like to get in on the ground floor and just see how they handle the day in and day out and how it translates to the NFL. I don’t think it’s healthy to stop just in sports, but to talk to people in the corporate world, those that are high-level performers, even though it doesn’t directly overlap, there’s correlation. . . . I think going outside of football is healthy and productive and powerful.”

McDermott has also spoken to OKC HC Mark Daigneault and legendary wrestling coach Dan Gable about their experiences in their sports. He’s also set to speak to William & Mary chancellor Robert Gates and attend leadership conferences in other spheres as part of his bid to be a better coach the next time around.
