Maurice Edward Clarett (born October 29, 1983) is a former American football running back who played for the Ohio State Buckeyes football team.
He also played professionally for the Omaha Nighthawks of the United Football League.
During his freshman year at Ohio State University in 2002, he helped lead the Buckeyes to a national championship.
In a widely unexpected move, Clarett was drafted on the first day of the 2005 NFL Draft with the final pick of the 3rd round (#101 overall) by the Denver Broncos.
He is well known for unsuccessfully challenging the NFL's draft eligibility rules requiring a player to be three years removed from high school and for his tumultuous life outside of football, including his dismissal from Ohio State, several arrests, and imprisonment.
Since his release, Clarett has become a celebrated public speaker across the country by speaking candidly about his previous struggles and successful recovery.
Additionally, Clarett founded a successful behavioral health agency in both Youngstown and Columbus.
He also co-hosts Business and Biceps, a top-rated business podcast.
