Co-founded by the collective expertise of three retired NFL players, Revenant is set to revolutionize the Illinois cannabis market with a focus on athlete-inspired wellness.
Elgin, Illinois, Sept. 26, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Jim McMahon, renowned as the punky QB for the 1985 Super Bowl champion Chicago Bears, is making a comeback, this time in the Illinois cannabis industry. He’s joining the Revenant Dispensary Launch Tour, featuring a series of meet-and-greet events at select dispensaries from September 28th through September 30th.
Revenant, co-founded by NFL players Jim McMahon, Kyle Turley, and Eben Britton, share a profound appreciation for the health and wellness benefits of the cannabis plant. From their playing days in the NFL through retirement, Kyle, Jim, and Eben witnessed firsthand how opioids abused the bodies and minds of so many players, including themselves. These personal experiences, where cannabis proved to be a lifesaver, have inspired the brand’s mission: to offer humanity an alternative to harmful pharmaceuticals while prioritizing the mental and physical well-being of all.
Jim McMahon expressed his enthusiasm for the brand’s launch in Illinois, stating “Revenant is more than just a brand; it’s a lifeline. My NFL journey revealed the devastating toll opioids can take on both the body and the spirit. Cannabis, on the other hand, illuminated a different path, one of healing and hope. Having personally transitioned from 100 Percocet’s a month to using Mac 9 pre-rolls, I haven’t touched an opioid since. Our mission with Revenant is to share this transformative path with the world, offering a natural alternative that prioritizes the well-being of all because we’ve experienced the profound difference it can make.”
Fans and cannabis enthusiasts have the chance to experience Revenant’s Mac 9 flower, pre-rolls, and vape cartridges while meeting NFL legend Jim McMahon at selected dispensaries during the Revenant Dispensary Launch Tour. The first 100 customers at each dispensary will receive a Mac-9 mini football, which they are welcome to have Jim sign.
