Vikings DT Pat Williams Says He Took StarCaps Because Of Chronic Gout

Filed Under: legal, nfc, nfcnorth, rumor, vikings

Pat Williams used the diuretic StarCaps before 2008 training camp to flush excess fluid from his joints caused by chronic gout, the Minnesota Vikings defensive tackle testified today. The 13-year NFL veteran said his ankles and knees had become inflamed during that offseason when his training was interrupted because his mother suffered a series of strokes in his home state of Louisiana. Asked by his attorney, Peter Ginsberg, why he used StarCaps in 2008, Williams testified it was "to get extra fluid out of my body."

I call bullshit.Getting fluid out of joints when you are having a gout attack is probably the WORST thing you can do.
