While not 100% the same, Kurt Warner's story is pretty remarkable. He went from stocking shelves at a grocery store, to winning a super bowl.

He was stocking shelves, but he was also an absolute stud in the arena football league and went on to lead the league in touchdowns in NFL Europe. Might be one of the only NFL Europe success stories that I know of. I'm a Rams fan and share the same alma mater as Kurt, so I'm extremely biased, but he definitely has one of the best stories in football in my opinion.

He and the "Greatest Show on Turf" were really fun to watch! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Greatest_Show_on_Turf
