Chad Ochocinco explained to Shannon Sharpe how viagra helped increase blood flow for enhanced performance.

Chad Ochocincoand Shannon Sharpe were two elite players at their positions over the course of their NFL careers. Now, they have teamed up for a show where they discuss all things football. On a recent episode of Nightcap, Chad Ochocinco explained to Sharpe one of his pregame routines and it included taking viagra.

Sharpe played 14 years in the NFL and revitalized the position a bit. He was a true pass catcher ranking first all-time in catches (815), receiving yards (10,060), and receiving touchdowns (62) at the time of his retirement. All records have since been broken but Sharpe’s impact on the game remains clear. He is also a three-time Super Bowl champion having won back-to-back titles with the Denver Broncos in 1997 and 1998 and Baltimore Ravens in 2000.

Ochocinco became known for many things during his career. First, his ability as a wide receiver, being named to six Pro Bowls and AP First Team All-NFL twice. This includes in 2006, when he led the NFL in receiving yards with 1,369. This was one of seven 1,000-yard seasons for Ochocinco. He also became known for his entertaining celebrations in the end zone after scoring touchdowns.

While Ochocinco was dominating on the field, there was another substance at play and it was nothing that would constitute as a performance-enhancing drug.

Chad Ochocinco Reveals Why He Took Viagra Before Games

Chad Ochocinco has spoken on his use of viagra before games for years now. On Tuesday’s episode, he confirmed the notion and explained the reasoning.

“It’s an enhancement with the increasing blood flow to improve performance horizontally, depending on how you do it. I don’t know what you do at home but to improve, yeah, they work too. Stay with me now. If you take half a pill before a game with a little bit of Red Bull, it increases the blood flow, which enhances performance.”

A post shared by The Volume (@thevolumesports)

Ochocinco has never lacked confidence, on or off the field. He continued to claim his elite status as an all-time receiver while explaining how viagra made him move better.

“I’m out there going crazy on half a viagra and a little bit of Red Bull and people are like ‘God, I can’t stop him for nothing.’ And then, you know, I am talking the whole game. The increased blood flow has me moving 10 times faster than I would regularly be moving without it and that’s what people don’t understand. That’s where the Viagra comes into play.”

Shannon Sharpe and Chad Ochocinco dominated on the field and now they are taking over on social media as well. If you believe in what Ochocinco is saying, viagra has plenty of other benefits outside of the bedroom.
