The Detroit Lions drafted Houston out of Jackson State University as the 217th overall pick in the sixth round of the 2022 NFL Draft. During his rookie season, Houston set an NFL record for sacks in his first four games and notched 8 sacks in seven to end the 2022 NFL regular season.

On March 13, Houston was in Jackson, Mississippi to promote the film.

"It wasn't the championship that really gave me the satisfaction that I wanted," Coach Deion Sanders told Brown in an exclusive interview, referring to the 2021 Celebration Bowl game against South Carolina State. "It was the journey."

Producer Dee Brown highlights an interview with Coach Prime at the Pro Day event, the story behind Sanders' "I Believe" mantra, and why HBCU athletics should spotlighted in college sports.

Dee Brown directed and produced the "Tiger Run: The Untold Story" docuseries on Self Made TV with Omarosa Newman as a producer.
