Former New England Patriots receiver Julian Edelman He pulls back the curtain of the rather unusual breaks on the NFL player bathroom.
Asked how professional players go to the bathroom in the middle of the game, the 38 -year -old Edelman explained that desperate times require desperate measures.
“You usually go right on the side line,” said the ex -player extremely US WeeklyS “You will see two trainers holding towels. You go right to the water cooler and get on your knees, pull your pants down (s) go. “
According to the three -time Super Bowl champion, the NFL team coaches are “really good”, helping players cover up their own, um, themselves when nature called in the middle of the game.
“The coaches are really good,” he explained, adding that it was customary for players to help hide on the sidelines between a water station and a handset.
“So you are between these two stations and then two trainers will hold towels right next to you,” he continued. “They see everything, but people don’t.”
Edelman continued to joke that “probably costs too much money for NFL” to deliver portable toilets for each team. (The NFL average team is worth approximately $ 6 billion.)
Edelman talks to USA As he is preparing to cover the Super Bowl in 2025 between Kansas City and Philadelphia’s Eagles as a Fox Sports commentator – the first for a retired wide receiver.
“I’m very excited,” the athlete called. “I did a Super Bowl, not as a player retired, but it will be the first (time) that I get to cover it with FOX. We have a three -hour kick show, which is super exciting. I like to work with the boys we work with. And the ladies, Erin Andrews and Christa Thompson “It was just so fun. “
Edelman also called to his ex -teammate and patriots defender Tom BradyAdding that he “can’t wait to see Tom and hear his insight into the game” partly because he can provide “unique” comment.
“No one really can talk about what Patrick It’s done right now, but Tom, ”he continued. “So I think it will be exciting.”
Perhaps pursued by his side vacations in the bathroom, Edelman is equally excited by Angel Soft’s first Super Bowl advertisement specially designed so that football fans can take their own vacation in the bathroom before this year’s halftime performance.
According to Angel Soft, nine out of 10 people have admitted that they missed something important because they were in the bathroom. (NFL players, however, are obviously immunized.)
“They take full advertising at Super Bowl to allow all of us who are glued to the TV – because of the game and ads – to take a break in the bathroom,” Edelman explained. “A little angel – we don’t have it here, but she’s so sweet. It’s just a reminder. “
