Drue Tranquill talks recovery methods with Jim Rome

In a time where NFL players haven’t been able to get into their team facilities and take advantage of all the perks and amenities that are at their disposal, players are having to find methods of fitness and recovery that work for them outside of their normal routine.

For linebacker Drue Tranquill, he’s turned to “cold water therapy”, which is a method where an individual forces themselves to take cold showers (or jump in the ocean, whatever works) in order to reduce inflammation following hard training sessions.

“I will typically do some type of cold water therapy, whether it’s a cold shower or whether I have the chance to make it out in the ocean and catch some waves,” Tranquill told Rome.
