The former Alabama All-American credits lessons learned after ACL tear for fueling his revival.

St. Louis Battlehawks quarterback AJ McCarron passes under pressure during a United Football League game against the D.C. Defenders on Sunday, April 28, 2024, at Audi Field in Washington.All-American made his comeback last year with the St. Louis Battlehawks of the XFL. McCarron then achieved his objective of returning to the NFL as a backup with the Cincinnati Bengals last season.

“Really truly, what’s helped me the most in my career was tearing my ACL, as much as I hate to say it,” McCarron said. “It really just changed my thought process behind what I was putting in my body. Talking to my doctors, Lyle Cain and everybody I was doing rehab with, was really just focusing on: This food causes more inflammation in the body and this type of food helps get inflammation out or helps deal with it and stuff like that. And then just watching my weight in general.

McCarron and the Battlehawks return to action at 2 p.m. CDT Saturday, when they play the Houston Roughnecks at the Dome at America’s Center in St. Louis. FOX will televise the game.
