He's almost certainly on Myostatin Inhibitors.

Myostatin (also known as growth differentiation factor 8, abbreviated "GDF8") is a secreted TGF beta protein family member that inhibits muscle differentiation and growth. Myostatin is produced primarily in skeletal muscle cells, circulates in the blood and acts on muscle tissue, by binding a cell-bound receptor called the activin type II receptor.[1][2] In humans, myostatin is encoded by the MSTN gene.[3]

Animals lacking myostatin or animals treated with substances such as follistatin that block the binding of myostatin to its receptor have significantly larger muscles. Thus, reduction of myostatin could potentially benefit the livestock industry, with even a 20 percent reduction in myostatin levels potentially having a large effect on the development of muscles.[4][5]

It's not HGH, though he might be on that as well. Basically he's taking something that overrides a chemical in your body that stops muscle growth once it reaches an unhealthy level.

He almost certainly has a body image disorder.

Is that the stuff Bob Sanders was on and made a muscle pop every time he hit the playing field the last few years?

Nah, Bob was just like Thomas Davis: too much power for his body.

Users of Myostatin Inhibitors are easy to spot.
