NFL reveals how close Packers star Aaron Rodgers is to violating league’s drug policy

Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers recently opened up about his use of a hallucinogenic drink that he credits for recent success. The Packers star received the all-clear from the NFL to continue his use on Monday.

NFL spokesman Brian McCarthy said Monday that the use of this drink would not violate the NFL’s drug policies. Packers head coach Matt LaFleur told reporters he hadn’t thought of the issue much when asked.

Rodgers appeared on the Aubrey Marcus Podcast on August 3 where he discussed his use of ayahuasca. Ayahuasca is a reddish-brown drink containing the active chemical dimethyltryptamine, or DMT.
