Jay Glazer-a top NFL insider on Fox NFL Sunday, an MMA coach, actor, and a veteran advocate and founder of MVP (Merging Vets and Players)-offers honest, in your face advice and insights gleaned from his fight through depression and anxiety, his successful careers in NFL journalism and business, as well as his work with military vets struggling with PTSD; the result is a relentless, unapologetic, and no-nonsense approach to overcoming your self-doubts, fears, and excuses. . . with the goal of becoming Unbreakable. In Unbreakable, Jay Glazer talks directly to you, his teammates, and shares his truth. All the success from his screeching-and-swerving joy ride through professional football, the media, the MMA fighting world, Hollywood, the military-warrior community, comes with a side of relentless depression and anxiety. Living in the gray, as Jay calls it, is just a constant for him. And, in order to work through and work better, Jay knows he has to keep going, to be of service, to believe in himself when no one else will, and be stronger, tougher, and more dedicated than anyone. Unbreakable is his story of how he has done this in all of his many endeavors-a relentless insider who won' t quit talking or take his foot off the gas, whether detailing how he got his big break inside the NFL (it involves a friendship with Michael Strahan that seems too unlikely even for Hollywood) or helping veterans fight for their lives in gyms around the country or playing himself on the hit show Ballers, Jay' s ability to laugh at himself and take on his mental struggles has given him a clarity, toughness, and openness that few people can rival. Throughout Unbreakable, Jay will use his stories-featuring some of the biggest, baddest, and most fascinating characters in the public eye today-to tackle the toughest subjects by making you laugh. He will also use them as motivation to outline a prescriptive plan for you to get to the top of your game, whatever your game is, and to stop making excuses. He will show you how to use your insecurities, your own battles with mental health, to get where you need to go, scars and all. Especially scars and all.
"Jay Glazer has lived Unbreakable his entire life. More importantly, behind the grit and toughness is a compassionate and warm human being. Everyone who' s had a chance to get to know him would repeat the same stories of trust, reliability, and loyalty. It' s simply how he is wired, and I' m quite sure you' ll feel that in Unbreakable. " -- Sean Payton, head couch of the New Orleans Saints "Jay is real, and that is what makes him great. But what' s consistent about Jay is his loyalty. You can ALWAYS count on him. Unbreakable reminds me of this: Jay' s can-do and will-do attitude. In a world of ' what have you done for me lately' or ' what can you do for me now,' Jay stands out as a real one. " -- Chuck Liddell, former UFC light heavyweight champion, UFC Hall of Famer "As a woman, veteran, and athlete, forged by tough love, I initially underestimated just how much Jay' s friendship, mentorship, and insights into mental toughness and vulnerability would shape my life. Unbreakable encourages readers to unlock their potential, lean into the uncomfortable, and stand proud of what makes them different. " -- Kirstie Ennis, U. S. Marine Corps sergeant and door gunner, Paralympic snowboarding athlete, first female above-the-knee amputee to summit Mount Kilimanjaro "Jay' s a fighter, in every sense of the word. He' s not only Unbreakable; he' s an underdog who believes in people so much that it helps them believe in themselves. I am one of those people. " -- Nate Boyer, Green Beret, Bronze Star recipient, former Seattle Seahawk "Jay Glazer helps people look forward and know that it' s okay to be different, because we all are. Unbreakable is inspiring and motivational. It teaches people that the phrase ' I got your back' is for always, and that you are never alone. " -- Royce Gracie, first-ever UFC champion, UFC Hall of Famer, and Gracie Jiu-Jitsu practitioner "Jay has always had an unmatched passion and desire to help others, but as Jay' s friend and business partner, what has been so amazing is witnessing his personal growth. In Unbreakable, his ability to help others has been elevated to a whole new level. " -- Lindsey Berg, two-time captain of the U. S. Women' s Olympic Volleyball team, and two-time silver medalist "This book is one of the most meaningful books I' ve ever read. It' s raw and real, coupled with compelling writing and entertaining moments. Like Jay Glazer, Unbreakable is also one of a kind. Read it and become Unbreakable!" -- Jon Gordon, twelve-time bestselling author of twenty-four books, including The Energy Bus "Jay Glazer sits at the intersection of authenticity and heart in everything he does. Jay has impacted many lives with his genuine vulnerability and grit, creating a space of belonging for those around him. Unbreakable is no different, offering an impassioned invitation to be and to own your own unique self with everything you do. " -- Kami Craig, two-time Olympic gold medalist in water polo "From the day I met Jay Glazer, I recognized his ability to turn scars into superpowers. He is an inspiring example of a kind character who sets an example of wearing one' s adversities like badges of honor and embracing one' s vulnerability as a signature of human courage. Unbreakable proves this fantastically. " -- Hayley Paige, famed wedding gown designer
Born and raised in Manalapan, New Jersey, Jay Glazer got his start covering the New York Giants for the New York Post and the local cable channel, NY1. Prior to joining the Fox Sports family in 2004, he covered the NFL for CBS SportsLine and was an insider on CBS Sports' The NFL Today. Among his many scoops over the years are the New England Patriots' Spygate video, Oakland Raider Barret Robbins' s Super Bowl Mexican bender, the NFL subpoenas in the BALCO drug-lab scandal, and the league' s new concussions rule. Outside football, Glazer has trained more than 100 NFL players, including Jared Allen, Odell Beckham Jr. , and Callais Campbell, improving their on-field performance with MMA techniques. He has also served as a special guest trainer for the Atlanta Falcons, New Orleans Saints, and other teams. In 2014, he co-founded the Unbreakable Performance Center, a private training facility in West Hollywood regularly frequented by Chuck Liddell, Mark Wahlberg, and Demi Lovato, as well as numerous NFL, NHL and MMA athletes. Beyond his sports assignments, Glazer stars as himself in all five seasons of HBO' s Ballers; his other acting credits include Bones, The League, The Game Plan and The Longest Yard. Yet it' s his commitment to military veterans that has truly captured his heart. In 2015, he and former U. S. Army Green Beret Nate Boyer founded the charitable organization MVP (Merging Vets and Players) to assist veterans and former professional athletes, who often faced a tough road adjusting to civilian life.
