Arik Armstead is getting into the world of podcasts.

In partnership with Tidal League, Armstead has launched “Third and Long” which gives fans a behind-the-scenes perspective from one of San Francisco’s most feared defenders.

“I’m thrilled to collaborate with Tidal League on this podcast project,” Armstead said in a press release. “I want to take fans on a journey
with me, giving them an inside look at what it’s like to be an NFL player. It’s an opportunity for me to connect with my fans
on a different level and share my stories and experiences in a more personal way.”

The San Francisco 49ers defensive lineman will welcome guests and break down the game, as well as life off the field.
