Jermon Bushrod
Super Bowl Champion | Youth Advocate | NFL Veteran | PAC Advisory Board Member
Jermon Bushrod is a 12-year NFL veteran, 2-time Pro Bowler, and Super Bowl Champion who has seamlessly transitioned into a life of purpose rooted in youth mentorship, athlete empowerment, and long-term legacy. A proud member of the PAC Advisory Board, Jermon is passionate about guiding current and former players toward meaningful impact beyond the field.
Born and raised in King George County, Virginia, Jermon was a multi-sport athlete in high school before playing college football at Towson University, where he made 38 consecutive starts at left tackle. In 2007, he was drafted by the New Orleans Saints and became the team’s starting left tackle just two years later. That same season, he helped lead the Saints to a 13-3 record and their historic Super Bowl XLIV victory—the first in franchise history.
In 2011, Bushrod led the NFL in snaps played and earned back-to-back Pro Bowl selections. He later signed with the Chicago Bears and finished his career with the Miami Dolphins before returning to New Orleans in 2018. He officially retired in 2019 after a decorated 12-year career, known for his durability, leadership, and consistency.
PAC has been special and it’s really needed. When the NFL bubble bursts, and it will, you need so much more than a plan. You need people. PAC is just that – people with a plan.

Off the field, Jermon is the founder of the Visualize and Rize Foundation, a nonprofit committed to supporting youth sports, education, and awareness of Waldenstrom macroglobulinemia (WHS), a rare form of non-Hodgkin lymphoma that personally impacted his family. Through scholarships, community outreach, and youth athletic programs, the foundation has helped countless young people gain access to opportunities they otherwise wouldn’t have had.
