If you’ve ever played football, you know it’s more than just muscle and speed. It’s about power, recovery, and being able to bring your best on every snap. That’s exactly why so many football players have fallen in love with creatine — it fuels the type of strength and explosiveness this sport demands.

Why Creatine for Football?

Football is all about short bursts of energy — sprinting, cutting, tackling, throwing. Creatine helps players do all of that better by giving their muscles quick, ready-to-use energy.

Here’s why it’s their go-to:

• Explosive Power: More phosphocreatine in your muscles = more quick energy for sprints, hits, and throws.

• Strength Gains: Creatine supports training volume so players can lift heavier and recover faster.

• Faster Recovery: Less soreness means more time training and less time sitting out.

• Game-Day Endurance: Better muscle hydration and delayed fatigue help players finish as strong as they start.

Basically, creatine gives players the juice to perform harder and bounce back quicker — game after game.

How Most Players Got Started (and Why They Fell Off)

Ask around, and most football players will tell you they started taking creatine in college. Usually, it went something like this:

“My strength coach told me to take it.”
“I bought the big tub of powder.”
“It was clumpy, tasted weird, and I forgot half the time.”

The truth? Traditional creatine works — but it’s messy, chalky, and not exactly something you look forward to. It’s easy to forget, easy to skip, and tough to stay consistent with.

That’s exactly why we built Create — to make creatine simple, delicious, and consistent. No shaker bottle, no weird aftertaste, just gummies that make daily creatine actually enjoyable.

Teaming Up with the Future of the NFL

We knew early on that the NFL needed to be part of the Create story. It’s such a natural fit — strength, consistency, recovery — all the things we care about most. But let’s be real, partnering with athletes is a big investment for a small brand, so we’ve had to be strategic about who we work with.

Instead of chasing the biggest names, we’ve focused on guys who really feel like Create. Smart players who take their training seriously but don’t take themselves too seriously. Hard workers. Good people. The kind of guys you can root for on and off the field.

That’s why we've teamed up with some of the most promising rising stars of the league - Ladd McConkey, Cam Skattebo, and Cooper DeJean (among others). Three players who bring totally different energy but share the same mindset.

• Ladd is all about routine and discipline — he just quietly puts in the work every day.

• Cam plays with fire and power; he’s intense in the best way possible.

• Cooper has that calm confidence — no drama, just results.

Working with them has been a game changer (literally). We’ve tapped into fan bases that love these guys and trust what they use. A ton of football fans who’d never thought twice about creatine are now learning about it — and trying Create because their favorite players do.

It’s been a huge win for the brand, and we’re just getting started. We’re fired up to keep building with Ladd, Cam, Cooper, and other players who represent the next wave of football — and the future of Create.

Seeing these players rely on Create everyday is incredible — but the best part?

Create Is Not Just for Football Players!

Everything these guys are getting out of creatine — better energy, faster recovery, more strength — is available to everyone.

You don’t have to be in the NFL to see the benefits.

• Weekend pickup games? Creatine helps you recover faster.

• Early-morning workouts? More consistent energy.

• Everyday life? Better strength and endurance over time.

That’s what makes this movement so special. Football players might’ve led the way, but now thousands of people — from athletes to everyday gym-goers — are discovering what creatine can do.

The Bottom Line

Football players love creatine because it works — it fuels power, recovery, and longevity. But it doesn’t have to taste bad or feel like a chore.

That’s what we’re changing. We’re proud to have players like Cam Skattebo, Cooper DeJean, and Ladd McConkey on board — and even prouder that their fans (and you!) are joining the movement too.

Create isn’t just changing creatine for football. We’re changing creatine, period. One gummy at a time.
