In an eye-opening revelation, two-time Super Bowl champion Brandon Jacobs admitted that he once played a football game under the influence of cocaine.
However, the former New York Giants running back insisted it was only a one-time occurrence.
Speaking on the Raw Room podcast – hosted by former NFL players Jalen Collins, King Dunlap, and Daren Bates – Jacobs casually recounted the experience, leaving the hosts stunned.
But before anyone jumps to conclusions, Jacobs clarified that this didn’t happen in the NFL. The incident took place during his high school days in Louisiana.
Recalling the moment he was introduced to the drug, Jacobs said it was offered to him by a friend who had graduated a year earlier.
“It was one of my homeboys, he had graduated a year before me,” Jacobs said. “I was walking into the weight room. He was like ‘Hey guess what I got?’, ‘What you got?’. He was like, ‘I got that white girl.'”
Jacobs revealed that “white girl” was a term they used for cocaine – and he decided to give it a try…
“I’m like ‘oh for real?’… [He said] ‘You wanna try?’ I’m like ‘yeah, I’ll try.'”
Afterwards, Jacobs ended up playing one of the best games of his high school career as he rushed for 338 yards and four touchdowns.
“I felt like I was the only one out there,” Jacobs said of the zone he felt he was in.
Despite the incredible performance, he claimed he never repeated the experiment. “Look, I ain’t never did it again… I should have did it again,” he said.
Jacobs spent nine seasons in the NFL, mostly with the Giants, where he helped lead the team to two Super Bowl victories – both against Tom Brady’s New England Patriots.
His power and physicality made him a key part of those championship runs. He was also a respected leader for Big Blue and remains a beloved figure within the organization.
What are your thoughts on Jacobs’ admission???
