Even though Joe Namath has been retired for decades, he remains one of football's most popular personalities. He has also become a top speaker when it comes to discussing mental health. 

On March 25, Namath was the guest speaker for the Hope for Depression Research Foundation's annual Chairmen's Council dinner. He shared football stories in addition to talking about the effects of post-concussion injuries in his talk at Club Colette in West Palm Beach, Florida. 

Namath talked about embracing the role of underdog in football and life. He used the perfect personal anecdote of the New York Jets triumph in Super Bowl III over the heavily-favored Baltimore Colts. 

Namath became an overnight sensation when he guaranteed a Jets victory prior to that game. He played over 13 years and was a four-time All-Star in the American Football League. 

Namath was also a two-time AFL MVP and led the league in passing yards twice. After the AFL-NFL merger, he paced the NFL in passing yards and touchdowns in 1972. 

During his career and after his playing days, Namath was one of the most successful corporate pitchmen in the sports world. His #12 jersey is retired by New York and he is a member of the Pro Football Hall of Fame.
