What Do NFL Players Do to Get Good Sleep the Night Before the Super Bowl? Nothing Special

ATLANTA — One in four Americans develop insomnia each year. None in four NFL players have trouble sleeping before the Super Bowl. The MMQB polled Rams and Patriots players who have previously played in the Super Bowl to find out how they get a good night’s sleep before the biggest game of the year. Apparently, it’s not hard.

“I looked at my phone, looked at the time I had to be up for breakfast, turned the alarm on and I went to sleep,” says C.J. Anderson, the Rams running back who was a Super Bowl 50 champion as a member of the Broncos.
