‘Ayahuasca: 48 touchdowns, MVP’: Rodgers says psychedelics helped NFL career

• Quarterback says many athletes take hallucinogens
• 39-year-old joined Jets from Packers this offseason

Aaron Rodgers has once again praised psychedelics, saying using them helped him in his professional and personal life.

The four-time NFL MVP, who joined the New York Jets from the Green Bay Packers this offseason, was speaking at a psychedelics conference in Denver on Wednesday. Colorado, along with Oregon, recently decriminalized the use of psychedelic mushrooms, although they remain illegal at a federal level in the United States.
