During his interview with @EdEastonJr, retired NFL All-Pro Greg Olsen discussed Tight End University's growth in its 6th year
This week, Chiefs Wire's Ed Easton Jr. spoke with retired NFL All-Pro tight end and FOX Sports analyst Greg Olsen. In his interview with Easton Jr.
, Olsen discussed his work with Novartis on its " Relax, it's a Blood Test " prostate cancer screening campaign. He reflects on the growth and popularity of Tight End University alongside fellow co-founders Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce and San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle. "Novartis, they deserve all the credit.
I mean, just a really fun, creative idea to get this PSA out into the community, out across the country," said Olsen, "obviously, made the big debut with our Super Bowl ad that me and some other fellow tight ends, past and present, got to film leading up to the Super Bowl this past February. Understanding that prostate cancer is the most common cancer among men in the United States. " For the " Relax, it's a blood test" campaign, Novartis and a roster of eight influential NFL leaders and icons, including Super Bowl-winning coach Bruce Arians, teamed up to champion prostate cancer screening and early detection.
Alongside Olsen, the campaign features Chiefs icon Tony Gonzalez, current tight ends George Kittle and Colby Parkinson, with NFL legends Rob Gronkowski, Delanie Walker, and Vernon Davis. Each brings a personal connection to prostate cancer and a shared commitment to breaking down stigma, normalizing men's health conversations, and motivating men to discuss PSA blood tests with their doctors. Olsen is a co-founder of Tight End University , which annually brings together NFL tight ends for film study, on-field drills, and networking, building camaraderie and improving performance.
