Meet Mohamed Massaquoi

Captain of the Bulldogs

A psychology degree, the 2008 team captaincy, first-team All-SEC receiver, and Academic All-SEC honors.

Four seasons in the NFL

Drafted in the second round of the 2009 NFL Draft, 50th overall. He played wide receiver through 2012.

Retiring after injuries

After a series of injuries, Mo retired from the NFL and began looking for what came next.

A new field

After football, Mo moved into finance and built a career at Morgan Stanley.

A code blue. Then a choice.

An ATV accident led to the partial amputation of his left hand. Twelve surgeries followed.

“I walked out. That meant I had a choice.”

Reinvention, on purpose

A master’s in industrial-organizational psychology, Harvard Business School’s Program for Leadership Development, UGA’s 40 Under 40, and then VESSOL.
