Wish they would be more informative that simply, "performance-enhancing substance."
Is it covered under HIPPA regulations? If so they're under federal law to release what it specifically was.

I imagine if it's something innocuous he's being disciplined for, or it's something the public would be understanding of, he'll probably come out and say something about it. Why let everyone think you might be cheating if you're not?
The problem with that is that
every player (or their agent) every time says it ws something innocuous because they knows it won't ever be contradicted.
For example, who's the last guy you can think of who got a drug suspension and it came out that it was for anabolic steroids, human growth hormone, heroin, or cocaine?
It's always "just weed" or "not reading the ingredients on an over-the-counter supplement" or "an error in my ADHD prescription" 100% of the time.
Those are regularly lies, but they can't be checked up on and their to the benefit of the person suspended.
As for Al Woods, according the NFL's policy if he's getting four games it means he has failed two tests in at most the last 90 days. He failed a test that put him in stage one, he received a treatment plan, and within 90 days of receiving that treatment plan he failed another drug test again.
ALL OF THESE GUYS who are getting four game suspensions for stuff like "not reading my supplement label" or "something not on the label in my legal supplement" etc. etc. have failed two drug tests in three months.
I think it's safe to say that practically all of them are probably full of crap. :lol:
