Pittsburgh Steelers safety Ryan Clark is making headlines after coming out and saying NFL players are using marijuana, including some of his teammates.

Clark made the announcement on ESPN’s “First Take” Thursday morning.

In the interview, Clark said he knows guys on the Steelers who “smoke.”

He told ESPN, “A lot of it is stress relief. A lot of it is pain and medication. Guys feel like, ‘If I can do this, it keeps me away from maybe Vicodin, it keeps me away from pain prescription drugs and things that guys get addicted to.’ Guys look at this as a more natural way to heal themselves, to stress relieve and also to medicate themselves for pain. Guys are still going to do it.”

Clark expressed some of his views on via his twitter account.

I don’t smoke marijuana. I won’t smoke marijuana. The NFL shouldn’t push marijuana but I’d be a fool to say that people don’t use it. — Ryan Clark (@Realrclark25) February 6, 2014

When asked to comment on the situation, the Steelers released the following statement to here at 93.7 The FAN: “We support the NFL’s drug-testing policy and will have no further reaction to Ryan’s comments.”
