Steelers rookie shocks NFL with insane diet

One Pittsburgh Steelers rookie has been going viral for his insane diet, leaving the NFL world shocked by the amount of food he consumes for game day.

Steelers third-round rookie Gennings Dunker, a talented offensive lineman out of Iowa, reportedly begins his game-day diet with two-to-three servings of pasta, meat sauce, bread rolls, steak, and two servings of fruit at 5:30 p.m. the night before he plays. Around three hours later, he follows this up by consuming three hamburgers, three bags of Baked Lay's, a hydration mix, and hot chocolate.

In the morning at approximately 7:15 a.m., Dunker consumes four servings of toast, two bowls of Wheaties, some pancakes, and two chicken breasts. He then follows it up with another four servings of toast and a chicken breast around two hours later.

Most people would quit at this point, but not Dunker — who finishes up his diet with a post-game meal at Culver's, featuring a Double Bacon Cheeseburger, family-sized cheese curds or onion rings, along with three sides of ranch.

A standout offensive tackle at Iowa, Dunker is projected to move to offensive guard in the NFL, where the Steelers currently have a vacancy on the left side.

Dunker was considered one of the top offensive line prospects in the NFL Draft, and if his diet is any indication of how he maintains his massive frame, Steelers fans will be in for a show in 2026.
