Viagra is a performance-enhancing drug.
But will it help players gain an edge on the football field?
Bears wide receiver Brandon Marshall seems to think so.
When asked about Adderall, which is being blamed for a rising number of PED suspensions in the NFL, Marshall had an interesting response.
“I don’t know too much about Adderall,” Marshall said during his weekly press conference. “I know guys, it is such a competitive league, guys try anything just to get that edge. I’m fortunate enough to be blessed with size and some smarts to give me my edge. But some guys, they’ll do whatever they can to get an edge. I’ve heard of some crazy stories. I’ve heard (of) guys using like Viagra, seriously. Because the blood is supposedly thin, some crazy stuff. So, you know, it’s kind of scary with some of these chemicals that are in some of these things so you have to be careful.”

I dunno - if I were an NFL center, I’d be rather nervous if I knew the quarterback had been popping Viagra.
They’d gain an edge off the field, too.
What is it about the MSM always quoting dumbasses?
Maybe the 3rd leg helps ‘em run
Your comment made me chuckle. My thought was ‘Isn’t it difficult to ride a bike without putting up the kickstand first?’
Because they’re always so quotable.
Stiff front line. No wonder there are so many “offensive holding” calls
I hope that a “hard” hit doesn’t refer to this.
Don’t fall down.
It’ll make ‘em hard.... to stop.
They’ll be really stiff.... competition.
They’ll need larger ‘cups’ in case that 4 hour thingy kicks in. Just sayin’.
For an erection lasting longer than four quarters see your doctor.
Don’t know about you Mr. Marshall but, I find it very difficult to run or even walk quickly when in the turgid state.
Maybe your quote “I’m fortunate enough to be blessed with size” doesn’t cover what you might have intended?
It’s Twoo! It’s Twoo!
Thanks for the laugh. That’s really apropos.
So now for it to be a catch, do all three legs have to be in-bounds?
