Now that it’s unofficially 4/20, otherwise known as “weed” day, the NFL is apparently going off on a limb with their drug testing program. Titans’ receiver AJ Brown is not too thrilled about it, based on his last tweet:
NFL will y’all please leave me alone with these drug test . 3rd one this off-season. I don’t even drink protein milk. Chill on me
— AJ Brown (@1kalwaysopen_) April 20, 2021
At some point, NFL players will probably accuse the NFL of profiling certain players to be potheads. But to be fair to the NFL, Brown attended Ole Miss with Texans lineman Laremy Tunsil, who cost himself some serious money after he shared a video of himself smoking marijuana just before the 2016 Draft. It may be profiling — but it makes so much sense.
Either way, it’s funny and it’s unlikely AJ Brown took much offense to it. Probably more annoying than anything else.
Thats what they all say
If you pay me 1 mil a year I will do a drug test every day. Be there at 8am with coffee for the nurses.
Exactly.
I never played major conference or professional football, but can tell you from personal experience in another sport that straight laced guys always seemed to get “random” drug tests more than the rest. The guys in Bible study each week seemed to be randomly tested more than the guys walking around with back-ne. I’ll let you all speculate as to why that might be.
