“In all my seasons on Dancing with the Stars, I’ve never had a partner so committed to hard work and excellence.

You’ll fall in love with Rashad’s story. And you’ll be inspired to become your best self! It would be a great movie someday!”

— EMMA SLATER, DANCER/CHOREOGRAPHER, DANCING WITH THE STARS SEASON 24 CHAMPION

“The IF In Life… The title alone speaks volumes. As a fellow NY Giant, I’ve come to know Rashad as a genuine mentor. He taught me the difference between NFL players and pro-athletes. His deeply missed presence in the locker room is a great testament to the incredible obstacles he has tackled to get to where he is today. This book chronicles that story, and gives you great principles for handling the IFs of life along the way! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!“

“I absolutely love how Rashad’s mom, dad, and brothers rallied around him in his childhood times of need. It just shows how much the loving support of a strong and committed family can do. Rashad’s tenacity and determination are infectious. A great story for all audiences, The IF In Life is also filled with precious principles for living and achieving your dreams.”
