Over the course of his football career, former Giants running back Brandon Jacobs became known for his explosive performances, regularly racking up hundreds of yards each game. In a new interview, the legendary NFL player revealed that before one stunning performance in high school, he’d taken cocaine before playing.
In a recent episode of the Raw Room podcast, Jacobs detailed the night he went for 338 yards and four touchdowns in high school — high off that "white girl."
"It was one of my homeboys, he had graduated the year before me," Jacobs explained, referring to who gave him the drug. "I was walking into the weight room and he’s like ‘Hey guess what I got? I got that white girl.'"
"I’m like yeah, lemme try it…338 yards, four touchdowns," he continued. "Killed It. I destroyed it."
Jacobs then went on to describe what it felt like to take the drug and play.
"It was easy," he said. "I felt like I was the only one out there. I never did it again. I should have did it again."
Without cocaine, Jacobs still went on to be a force to be reckoned with on the field. He won two rings with the Giants and still holds the franchise record for the most career rushing touchdowns.
