If you go to any stadium in the NFL, you will notice fans enjoying a pre-game meal in the parking lot. Tailgating is part of the whole NFL experience, but fans are not the only ones who enjoy their food before kickoff. Many NFL players — like San Francisco’s Vernon Davis — have special pregame eating habits that don’t vary. Here are a few examples:
- Vernon Davis, 49ers - baked chicken, broccoli and cheese, spaghetti
- Matt Bryant, Bucs - chocolate malt milkshake
- Jonas Jennings, 49ers - turkey club sandwich with no bacon
- Igor Olshansky, Chargers - fruit (watermelon, grapes, and cantelope), wheat pasta with marinara sauce, garlic and basil, and chicken
- Aaron Smith, Steelers - plain hamburger and pasta
- Marvel Smith, Steelers - chicken pasta
- Max Starks, Steelers - Shark Bites Fruit Snacks
- Terrell Suggs, Ravens - scrambled eggs with cheese in the morning and steak and pasta in the afternoon
- Brian Urlacher, Bears - two chocolate chip cookies
- Bryant Young, 49ers - oatmeal or anything with a lot of carbs
