PHILADELPHIA (CBS)--Strong. Reliable. Consistent.

Jason Avant was like glue--the kind of player that helps a team stick together.

But now that the former Eagle is done playing football, he's taking his skills to the business world.

Avant is opening a trampoline park - Launch Deptford at 1500 Almonesson Road - in Deptford, New Jersey.

As a proud father of 3 young children, he saw a need for quality play time away from the TV and computer screens.

The 33-year-old says he's is excited about his new career.

"You know what I actually live in Deptford… I love it here," said Avant. "I was looking around and I felt like this would be a good place because there's so many different things that's in this park that can be a safe haven for our young adults, our young children. I thought that this would be a great place to give back to our community."
