When you think Super Bowl champions and CBD, who comes to mind?
Rob Gronkowski. Also known as: “Gronk”
The 6’6″ tight end was a two-time Super Bowl champion, an NFL All-Pro, and a former New England Patriots player. He also happens to be one of the most famous athletes in North America—his endorsement power is undeniable.
Gronkowski said that he was looking for something safe and effective after a career spent pounding his body on the field (and off). After hearing about CBD from his dad, Gronk tried it out himself—and loved it! “I thought it would help me sleep at night when I had trouble sleeping before games or practices,” he told Men’s Health in 2017. “It definitely did,” adding that he takes one dropper every night before bedtime.
Rob Gronkowski, the NFL’s All-Pro tight end, perhaps?
Rob Gronkowski, the NFL’s All-Pro tight end and perhaps one of the greatest football players to ever live, has officially endorsed CBD.

First, let’s get one thing straight: Rob Gronkowski has won a Super Bowl. He’s a dominant tight end with an impressive résumé. He’s also one of the biggest names in the NFL—and by extension, American sports. If he endorses something—anything—people are going to pay attention.
So when Gronk came out publicly as an advocate for CBD and how it can help athletes recover from injuries and inflammation, well….
Since retiring in May 2019 (and then unretiring in late April 2020), Gronk has been an outspoken supporter of the cannabis plant and its potential therapeutic benefits for athletes.
Gronk is an outspoken advocate for the use of cannabinoids in sports. He’s been open about his own experiences with CBD, saying that it helped him recover from injuries and avoid painkillers while playing football.
CBD, which does not contain THC and is non-intoxicating, has been shown to help with pain relief, anxiety, sleep and many other health conditions.

While you might be thinking “but I’ve heard that CBD isn’t legal,” don’t worry. In fact, CBD is legal in all 50 states plus Washington D.C.. And it’s not just legal—it’s actually quite safe too! Research shows that it’s impossible for anyone who ingests CBD to get high from it because the compound doesn’t get you high in any way (like THC does).
Rob Gronkowski is a serious athlete who tries new things to improve his performance – and recover from injury faster.
So there you have it, some of the most popular athletes in the world endorsing CBD for their joints, muscles and overall well-being. We hope that by seeing these high-profile athletes talk about how they use CBD oil daily or even weekly has encouraged you to try it out yourself!
