A native of Winter Park, Fla., Marshall started 21 career games at wide receiver for the University of Central Florida (2002-05) and added seven starts at safety for the school during his junior year.

Off the field, Marshall co-founded Project 375 with wife Michi Marshall after being diagnosed with borderline personality disorder to aid in supporting others suffering from mental illness and disorders by eradicating the stigma associated with it.
