Jaguars just drafted OL Ben Bartch.
He went from tight end to OL by putting on 60 pounds with this smoothie:
– Scrambled eggs
– Grits
– Bananas
– Peanut Butter
– Gatorade(via @thecheckdown)pic.twitter.com/eQtzpU3lEd

“Throw it all in and plug my nose,” Bartch said. “I’d gag sometimes, but that’s what you have to do.”

Bartch impressed NFL scouts after getting invited to January’s Senior Bowl. He couldn’t play in the game because of a knee injury, then instead of flying around the country for pre-draft visits, he met with teams via videoconferencing on Zoom and FaceTime.
He also was held out of combine workouts while his knee healed.
That smoothie attention didn’t hurt either.
