Terry Crews was a tall, fast, and incredibly strong football player whose NFL career was destined to be a star-studded one. He got drafted for the L.A Rams in 1991 after enjoying a full football scholarship at the Western Michigan University. In 1996, he quit the sport and decided to venture into film. His acting career almost never kicked off, and he was forced to start from the bottom since he had zero acting experience. His big break came when Ice Cube cast him as Damon in Friday After Next.
