- logn 12y agoSteroids don't make you taller. Also if you devote yourself to nutrition and weight lifting, as a 6 foot male it's not too hard to exceed 200 pounds. I don't doubt steroids play a part, but there are many other factors (in addition to just the fact that football became a national obsession so is attracting more potential players). And prior to 1940, the same players played offense and defense, along with limited substitutions. These days, players not only play one position but are often substituted out depending on the particular play or formation. That lets players specialize and, I'd argue, put on body mass for their more limited role.
