Chester “Tre” Rogers is a man of many talents. The 29-year-old wide receiver has been juggling his successful NFL career with his passion for acting, including his recurring role in the hit Starz show “BMF.”
Rogers has been interested in acting since he was just 10 years old and has starred in several movie projects, including “Constellation,” “Dirty,” and Tyler Perry’s “Madea’s Family Reunion.” After starring as a child actor, the Alabama native decided to return to his normal childhood and pursued a career in football.
