Denver Broncos great Ed McCaffrey now has healthy snack brand

Feb 10, 2025, 3:38 PM

Folks from my era – the 90s and early 2000s – remember Ed McCaffrey as a Denver Broncos great. My kids just think of him as NFL superstar Christian McCaffrey‘s dad. Either way, he’s cooking up a new snack for us to try.

McCaffrey has been selling mustards for years under the Denver-based McCaffrey Brands umbrella, but now they are adding more than just condiments to their food roster.

The Colorado Sports Hall of Famer is launching a new line of snacks, McCaffrey Protein Bites, which will be available at Kings Soopers, DICK’s Sporting Goods and Scheels locations nationwide later in 2025, the company said.

The snacks are debuting in three flavors: Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough, Birthday Cake and Fudge Brownie. The company said the product is “sustainably made,” as well as plant-based, “non-GMO” and gluten-free.
