9-year NFL tight end and The Bachelorette, Bachelor In Paradise contestant Clay Harbor visits the Jack Vita Show to recap NFL Week 16 (2021) and discuss Matt Nagy's future with the Chicago Bears, Nick Foles' impressive performance in Seattle, and what changes may be coming soon for the Bears, Russell Wilson's future with the Seahawks and in the NFL, the Cincinnati Bengals taking over the AFC North, Clay's time playing for the Philadelphia Eagles, Jacksonville Jaguars, New England Patriots, Detroit Lions and New Orleans Saints, his best stories playing with Tom Brady and Drew Brees, memories from Michael Vick's fantastic 2010 season in Philly, DeSean Jackson's walk-off punt return touchdown at the Meadowlands, Clay's adventures looking for love on reality television and The Bachelor franchise, Clay's favorite Bible verse, his relationship with Christ, his Christian faith, and much more!

Clay spent nine years in the NFL playing tight end for the Philadelphia Eagles, Jacksonville Jaguars, New England Patriots, Detroit Lions and New Orleans Saints. Following the 2017 season, Clay was recruited to compete for the heart of Becca Kufrin on season 14 of The Bachelorette. In a group date, pick-up football game, Clay injured his forearm and had to leave The Bachelorette, in hopes of rehabbing before the start of the 2018 NFL season. Unfortunately, in training camp, Clay got injured once again, and he hasn't played in an NFL game since. In early 2020, he joined the XFL's Team 9 practice squad prior to the league's shutdown due to COVID-19. In 2019, Clay appeared as a cast member on ABC's Bachelor In Paradise.
