NFL teams eat a ridiculous amount of Uncrustables

Uncrustables aren’t just for kids’ lunch boxes. According to a new report from The AthleticsNFL teams are low-key obsessed with the frozen PB&Js, eating at least 80,000 sandwiches during the football season.

Twenty-four of the 32 NFL teams agreed to have their PB&J data collected during the outlet’s scientific search. These figures showed that the Denver Broncos consumed the most Uncrustables of the participating teams: 700 per week. That’s more than double the amount every other participating team goes through.

Next up were the Seattle Seahawks, Jacksonville Jaguars, and Miami Dolphins, who handle 320, 315, and 300 Uncrustables per week, respectively. Of the participating teams, the Cincinnati Bengals and New Orleans Saints ate the least amount of the snack, just 50 per week.

When the weekly figures of the 24 groups are added together, it appears that NFL teams as a whole eat between 3,600 and 4,300 sandwiches per week. In a year, that will be enough sandwiches to fill an 18 meter football field.

While the sandwiches aren’t exactly the pinnacle of nutrition for professional athletes, they do provide carbohydrates, fat and protein.

As for what makes the snack such a popular choice among NFLers, alum Jeff Saturday praised: “You could throw your playbook on top of it, it didn’t make any difference. Crushed, unsqueezed, you’re going to crush it.

Today the outlet reported that San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle eats up to six Uncrustables while traveling for road games. Kansas City Chiefs defensive end Mike Danna and Baltimore Ravens kicker Justin Tucker are also vocal fans.

The outlet further noted that, on its popular New heights podcast, Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce said he consumes more Uncrustables than “anything else in the world.”
