Former NFL star Kroy Biermann has embarked on a new journey after his football career, taking a role at a rigging and assembly company. This transition comes as he is reportedly facing financial difficulties and navigating a tumultuous divorce.
Biermann, who played nearly a decade in the NFL for the Atlanta Falcons and the Buffalo Bills from 2008 to 2016, has joined Superior Rigging & Erecting Co., a company known for its involvement in sports stadium construction. The company’s notable projects include the renovation of State Farm Arena, home of the Atlanta Hawks, and the construction of Mercedes-Benz Stadium, the state-of-the-art arena shared by the Falcons and Atlanta United.
According to Biermann’s LinkedIn profile, his role as ‘Crane and Rigging Coordinator’ is crucial to ensuring a smooth process from the first customer contact to the successful completion of each job. This career move demonstrates Biermann’s ability to adapt and thrive in new environments beyond professional football.
However, this change comes amid reports of significant financial problems for Biermann and his wife Kim Zolciak-Biermann. Allegedly saddled with debt, her Georgia mansion is reportedly in foreclosure and remains unsold despite significant price reductions. The property will soon be auctioned. While dealing with these challenges, Zolciak-Biermann has started selling fake Christmas trees on Instagram to raise money.
The couple’s divorce proceedings have also contributed to their problems. Since May 2023, several police operations have been reported at their residence due to disputes between them. Earlier this month, Biermann and Zolciak-Biermann were even ordered to stay away from each other after an incident in which both parties accused each other of theft.
Biermann’s decision to pursue a career in rigging and construction demonstrates his willingness to overcome adversity and build a stable future. It highlights the resilience and versatility often required for success, even after leaving the professional sports world.
As Biermann begins this new chapter, only time will tell how he handles his financial challenges and his personal life. But one thing is certain: his commitment to overcoming obstacles both on and off the field is unwavering.
