Sample hockey video split

It looks like Drew Sample dusted off those hockey cobwebs pretty quickly.

On Saturday, the tight end for the NFL’s Cincinnati Bengals posted a video on social media showing himself taking a few slapshots at a practice arena. The caption said it’s been a while since he hit the ice, but it sure didn’t look like it.

Sample isn’t the only NFL player that can skate. Now-retired NFL star JJ Watt has previously posted videos of himself on the ice, most recently in March at Mullet Arena in Arizona.

Sample has been a supporter of the Columbus Blue Jackets since he started playing professional football in Ohio five years ago, and back in April, the team gave Sample a pair of skates.

We’re not sure if those are the skates Sample was using on Saturday, but we wouldn’t be surprised.
