DJ Chark addresses multiple topics, personal and professional, on Amon-Ra St. Brown’s podcast
DJ Chark made an appearance on teammate Amon-Ra St. Brown’s podcast this week, and it was wide-ranging, at times interesting and often funny.
Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown and his brother, Bears wide receiver Equanimeous, have a weekly podcast associated with The 33rd Team. It’s often different and interesting, and this week’s guest was Lions wide receiver (for now) DJ Chark.
Chark talked about a wide range of topics, from his time in Jacksonville with Urban Meyer to his upcoming free agency to how fast Jameson Williams is.
Meyer was clearly not cut out to be an NFL head coach, and Chark openly wonders if he could go back to college and be successful like he was before. Chark also didn’t outright totally bash Meyer, based on his partial season with him in Jacksonville.
"I think he’s a good person. I think he wants the best out of all players,” Chark expressed. “I can go talk to coach Meyer about whatever I wanted to go talk to him about. He’ll talk back, and we’ll have a conversation. I give him that.I don’t really need the motivation from you to make me get up and work. I have kids. He just tried to motivate us in a way that didn’t really work for professional men.”I think it works for college,” Chark started to explain. “I don’t know about now in college, because you can get in the transfer portal like it ain’t nothing. So, I don’t know.”"

Chark has made it clear he wants to re-sign with the Lions, but he knows it’s a business.
"Going into this year, man, I’m trying not to even worry about what is going to happen. I feel like I’m going to be where I’m supposed to be. If that’s Detroit, that would be great, because I got some real good friendships and I like it there. And, it’s really good. But, you know, it’s a business. You never know. So, we’ll see how that will go, but it’ll be smooth regardless.”"
St. Brown and Chark had a fun ongoing back and forth about head sizes and haircuts.
