Popular NFL analyst and former NFL player, Pat McAfee is planning on making a big purchase that will make him touch the clouds like Iron Man. McAfee is one of the lucky few who have carved a successful career out of their retirement from the league. After 8 years as a punter in NFL, McAfee diverted to the role of an analyst. He recently shared his desire to own a jet pack in a YouTube video.

On his self-hosted YouTube channel, Pat McAfee and former NFL player AJ Hawk shared an interaction about a jet pack. The popular sports analyst seemed genuinely interested in owning one.
