DENVER, CO, Mar 21 (Marketwire) --
MusclePharm Corporation (OTCQB: MSLP), a nutritional supplement company
focused on active lifestyles, is proud to announce it has signed a
multi-year endorsement deal with the NFL San Francisco 49ers Super Bowl
quarterback Colin Kaepernick. As part of the relationship, Kaepernick
will represent MusclePharm in a series of advertisements, radio and
television appearances, and social media outlets.
Kaepernick is considered one of the fastest raising stars in the NFL.
Drafted in 2011 in the second round by the San Francisco 49ers,
Kaepernick became the team's full-time starter in the middle of the 2012
season leading the 49ers into the NFL playoffs. In his first career
postseason start, he put forth an electrifying performance against the
Green Bay Packers setting an NFL single-game record for most rushing
yards (181) by a quarterback. After beating the Atlanta Falcons in the
NFC Championship, he led the 49ers to their first Super Bowl appearance
since 1994 against the Baltimore Ravens.
Commenting on the announcement, Kaepernick stated, "I added MusclePharm
supplements to my routine at the beginning of my rookie season in the
NFL. MP covers all my needs when it comes to energy, recovery and
increased productivity both on and off the field. I am honored to become
part of the MusclePharm team and look forward to representing their
highly regarded brand."
Commenting on the announcement, MusclePharm Founder & CEO, Brad Pyatt,
stated, "Kaepernick's reputation as a workout fanatic coupled with his
amazing physique makes him an ideal fit with the MusclePharm brand. He is
both an articulate and charismatic young man with a work ethic and
competitive drive that complement his dynamic athleticism. We are
thrilled to have him represent MusclePharm."
