Former Miami Dolphins safety Nate Allen trading a football for a firefighter’s suit

Near Naples, Florida – Former Miami Dolphins safety Nate Allen is training to become a firefighter in Collier County

He is about to complete his training with the North Collier Fire Department.

According to Allen, he plans on giving it his all for his new teammates, just like on the field.

“We might not be fighting crazy fires every day, but whether it be responding to medical calls, whether it be helping the elderly, whatever the situation may be, yeah, I plan on giving it 100% every day and coming with a full heart of love every day,” he said.

Allen will soon take the state exam and other written exams before officially becoming a firefighter.
