Will Compton has moved on to the next chapter of his life. Having played college ball at the Univerity of Nebraska, he went on to make his NFL debut with the Washington Redskins. Compton came into the Redskins as an undrafted free agent but soon made his way into the rotations. As an NFL veteran, he also had his fair share of time playing for the Oakland Raiders, Tennessee Titans, and Las Vegas Raiders.
Nowadays, Will Compton is busy hosting the Barstool Sports podcast, Bussin’ With The Boys, along with former Titans offensive tackle Taylor Lewan. And recently, on internet, he posted an “embarrassing” post on Twitter expressing his wish to do a podcast with Joe Rogan.

Compton went with a personalized message “Hey brother, We will be in Austin next week performing at Vulcan if you’d like tickets to the show. Our treat. Also – if you’d wanna get together for a pod I’m sure I can move some things around to make it work. Not 100% but I’ll try. Just let me know where your head is at.”
NFL fans had a wide range of reactions to this seemingly awkward interaction.
One user felt that Compton just managed to embarrass himself, “My fu*kin god the embarrassment.”
My fuckin god the embarrassment.

While another felt that Compton’s ongoing beef with Theo Von might get in the way of him getting along with Joe Rogan, “It’s a shame you and @TaylorLewan77 are beefing with @TheoVon I know he and @joerogan are pretty tight….”

This Twitter user just went on an epic rant about Joe Rogan not being publicly viewable.
Lol I live in Austin, he’s not really publicly viewable. You won’t catch him randomly in the streets. He stays low key as you’d understandably imagine

While another went on to appreciate the pitch but felt it wasn’t good enough for Joe Rogan.
That pitch is absolutely amazing but Rogan ain't entertaining that.
