BOSTON, Oct. 24, 2019 /PRNewswire/ - John Hancock has teamed up with The Players' Tribune and CBS Sports Digital to launch "Plan for Amazing," a digital campaign to raise awareness of retirement planning through the perspective of professional football players, including Eric Ebron, Myles Garrett, D.K. Metcalf and Brandon Copeland.

Through "Plan for Amazing," Ebron, Garrett, Metcalf and Copeland are helping to reframe the conversation around retirement through a personal video series that explores their respective long-term goals and passions outside of football. Each of the players identified their three-word retirement plan and how they are planning for the retirement they want. The video series kicked off today with Indianapolis Colts Tight End Ebron sharing his "Courage, Curiosity, Legend" retirement plan and passion for being a firefighter.

The remaining "Plan for Amazing" videos will launch throughout the fall, with a new one released every other week. Through the campaign, John Hancock hopes to encourage more Americans to invest in their future today to help alleviate financial stress down the road and make the most of their retirement.

"Retirement shouldn't be a scary or taboo word. We want our customers to see retirement as something to look forward to, instead of somewhere you just end up," said Barbara Goose, Chief Marketing Officer at John Hancock. "That's why we're thrilled to partner with The Players' Tribune and CBS Sports to change the conversation around retirement – to make it fun, relatable and not so daunting. Your retirement can be whatever you want it to be as long as you plan for it."

"At John Hancock Retirement, we're committed to making retirement plans work," said Patrick Murphy, President and CEO, John Hancock Retirement. "As part of that ambition, we're always looking for ways to educate consumers on the importance of retirement planning, and provide them with tools, education, and strategies to improve their current financial realities. Each of us has an opportunity to 'plan for amazing' – no matter what that may look like to you."

This is the second year John Hancock, CBS Sports and The Players' Tribune have teamed up to shed light on the importance of retirement planning. In 2018, "The Long Game" campaign shared the stories of six professional football rookies through a series of videos and personal essays as they started planning for their dream retirements.
