Falcons guard Chris Chester gets his jolt from coffee

ATLANTA -- One would expect a 300-pound offensive lineman to emerge from the locker room wearing a scowl and maybe thumping his chest a few times in preparation for battle.

Such isn’t necessarily the case for Chris Chester. On game day, the Atlanta Falcons right guard typically strolls onto the field for warm-ups wearing a blank stare and toting a 16-ounce cup in his right hand.

Not Gatorade. Not water. But coffee.

Yes, coffee.
