NFL Linebacker Creates His Own Cupcake

Stephen Tulloch is on top of the world. He’s young, in good health, a linebacker for the Detroit Lions. So what more could a guy want? Turns out: his own cupcake.

Tulloch, in collaboration with Just Baked, has developed a cupcake that will be forever known as “The Linebacker.” The Linebacker is a blue velvet flavored cupcake that will be topped off with a cream cheese frosting.

Just Baked, a chain of bakeries in Michigan, will sell the cupcake at all of their stores Thursdays through Sundays at $2.95 a piece. Sales of “The Linebacker” will help raise money for The Stephen Tulloch Foundation (ST55).

I’ll eat as many cupcakes as it takes to help the kids. And I think Tulloch knew this.
