Football - Hall of Fame quarterback Terry Bradshaw admitted in a radio interview to using steroids during his playing days.
Bradshaw, who led the Pittsburgh Steelers to four Super Bowl titles in a six-year span in the 1970s, said on the Dan Patrick Show that he only used steroids to help him deal with injuries.
"We did steroids to get away the aches and the speed of healing," Bradshaw said. "My use of steroids from a doctor was to speed up injury, and (I) thought nothing of it. . . . It was to speed up the healing process, that was it. It wasn't to get bigger and stronger and faster."
The No. 1 overall pick in the draft in 1970, Bradshaw also said he took the steroids with a doctor's prescription. Steroids were not illegal when Bradshaw played.
