After receiving more recognition on the football field during his junior year of high school, Derrick set his mind to college football and arrived on the campus of Georgia Tech. In 2010, his next goal was accomplished as well with the Tennessee Titans drafted him. While his goal was soon realized, a torn ACL injury turned Derrick\u0026rsquo;s world upside down, forcing him to evaluate his value outside the football field.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\r\n\u003Cbr \/\u003E\r\n\u003Cstrong\u003EAbout\u0026nbsp;Deep\u0026nbsp;Startups:\u003C\/strong\u003E\u0026nbsp;Deep\u0026nbsp;Startups\u0026nbsp;is an events series that features knowledgeable entrepreneurs who discuss their experiences forming companies that solve big-picture current problems.
