This alliance is set to revolutionize the industry by educating
elite athletes and coaches on upgrading from conventional energy
drinks available in the marketplace.
“At Collective, we believe everyone – football players, coaches
and fans alike – can benefit from filling their bodies with clean
fuel,” Flowers said. “So many energy drinks are filled with
artificial stuff, sugars and unproven stimulants that can
negatively impact a person’s overall well-being as well as alter
their performance, whether on the field or in decision making in
critical moments. Yerbaé breaks the mold, and I truly believe our
collaboration can initiate a positive shift towards healthier
energy drink choices in the sports industry and beyond.”
Drafted by the Jaguars in 2001, Flowers played three seasons in
the NFL and NFL Europe before starting a career in coaching on Mike
Shanahan’s renowned staff in Washington, which produced several
current NFL head coaches. Flowers eventually decided he had a
bigger calling and formed Collective Sports Advisors – a fully
integrated sports media company that represents more than 90 NFL
and college coaches and, through the QB Collective, has worked with
many of the top quarterbacks in the NFL, NCAA, and high school
football today.
Now, Flowers and Collective is partnering with Yerbaé, a brand
committed to delivering a better, cleaner energy experience.
Todd Gibson, CEO and Co-Founder of Yerbaé, echoed Flowers’
sentiment, saying, “We are proud to collaborate with such an
esteemed group of coaches and players who are shaping the future of
football. Teaming up with Richmond and the Collective aims to
provide elite athletes and coaches with extensive knowledge on the
benefits of incorporating Yerbaé’s plant-based energy into their
daily routines.”
Central to Yerbaé’s unique formula is the utilization of yerba
mate, a natural and energizing plant that has gained traction in
the sports community. Yerba mate, known for its numerous health
benefits and energy-boosting properties, offers a sustainable
alternative to the synthetic stimulants often found in traditional
energy drinks. Its presence in Yerbaé’s offerings ensures that
coaches and athletes receive a clean and sustained energy boost
without the harmful side effects associated with conventional
options. All beverages are made with plant-based ingredients and
contain zero calories, zero sugar, and zero artificial
sweeteners.
This partnership is set to emphasize how integrating Yerbaé’s
plant-based energy drinks into the coaches’ daily lives can enhance
their performance on and off the field. Furthermore, it serves as
an inspiration for fans and aspiring athletes to prioritize
healthier choices in their energy sources, thereby contributing to
a culture of wellness.
The Yerbaé and QB Collective collaboration will not only fuel
athletes’ performance during training and games but also contribute
to their overall health and well-being. With Yerbaé’s diverse range
of refreshing flavors and Flowers’ extensive experience in athlete
development and credibility in the industry this partnership seeks
to make a significant impact on the sports industry.
