    He sells his own brand of supplements through his program. Been doing it for years. I'd be shocked if a fitness personality wasn't selling them.
    All hail the Ruler of the Meadow!

    If you avoid over the counter crap that promises the moon, it can probably be done safely by non-NFL trainers.

    But I'd be lying if I said that fear hadn't crossed my mind.
    I wonder how much a company pays to have their product on the approved list? Does the NFL still have the Supplement Hotline? Sure hope Horton doesn't endorse StarCaps.

    Yes, the NFL has a list of approved supplements.

    I remember when Ras and I were going back and forth during the Starcaps debate, I found a list published by the NFL.
    But Rodgers leads the league in frumpy expressions and negative body language on the sideline, which makes him, like Josh Allen, a unique double threat.

    The StarCaps thing was wacky. IIRC, it was ok and players had been taking it to make weight for a while. Formula got changed, but the new ingredient did not appear on the label. NFL knew about this, but didn't send out a warning. It then proceeded to collect a list of players who were using it (Deuce McAllister was one) and suspend them all! Cool sting operation guys!
