Jordan Yates has been an absolute mad man in his preparation for season 3 of the NSFL. He spent the beginning of the offseason working strictly on strength training with fellow lineman Vincent Sharpei and Ben Longshaw. Their training mostly consisted of squats and deadlifts. Jordan Yates unofficially broke the record for highest squat as a video of him squatting 1200 pounds raw surfaced on instagram. Jordan Yates then went on to do his own thing for the rest of the offseason. He traveled to Russia to train with members of the olympic team in order to improve his explosiveness. There have been unconfirmed reports that Yates received some illegal substances that may boost performance, but these reports seem to be unsubstantiated. He then began a quest to achieve mental strength as he lived with Buddhist Monks for a month. He followed all the rules strictly, and somehow managed to exit the group with seemingly more muscle despite the lack of food needed for a man his size. Yates said he is completely prepared to exceed expectations in the coming season. He has also been quoted saying he plans to refuse his player option and enter free agency, citing a need for "moolah"
