Xtra Ordinary Sports Podcast

On this episode of the Xtra Ordinary Sports Podcast, we have one of our most important conversations yet! We're on the MIC with special guest, NFL RB, Mike James who shares his unique story of NFL injury and recovery. Mike was prescribed opioids by the NFL after a season ending ankle injury and became immediately addicted to the opioids he was prescribed. It wasn't until his Wife recommended the medicinal marijuana route that he entertained alternative treatment. Not only did medical marijuana help him recover, it weened him off of what he became addicted to and helped his recovery in more ways than one. Mike is now traveling the country and World sharing his story to help push the narrative forward that medicinal Marijuana for Athletes shouldn't be a need but a MUST!
