Pickle juice does wonders for cramping, apparently.

Kansas City Chiefs WR Tyreek Hill was spotted drinking a strange looking liquid out of a small bottle on the sidelines shortly after his first-quarter touchdown grab.

No, Hill wasn’t taking a shot of liquor on the sidelines, as amusing as that would be. In fact, he was drinking pickle juice. Why pickle juice, you ask? Well, last week Hill dealt with cramping in his hamstring against the Miami Dolphins. He pulled up late in the game and many fans thought that he was injured. He spent the week listed on the injury report with a hamstring injury due to that cramping.

Apparently, pickle juice has long been used as a remedy to help treat cramps for NFL players. CBS Sports broadcaster Tony Romo even noted that he’d had the drink before.

Check it out:

Hopefully, the Chiefs are able to get Hill’s cramping under control, because he’s been one of the top receivers in the first half against the Saints. As of my writing, he’s caught 3-of-5 passes for 19 yards and a touchdown. He also has a carry for a yard. Hill already has tied Dwayne Bowe’s single-season record for receiving touchdowns in this game. With another touchdown grab, he’ll be able to break the record.

They’ll need him at his best if they’re going to hang on to the lead in this game.
