    Pats Edelman Facing 4 Game PED Suspension

    New England Patriots wide receiver Julian Edelman is facing a four-game suspension for violating the NFL's policy on performance-enhancing substances, league sources told ESPN on Thursday.

    The suspension is currently under appeal as Edelman has taken "hundreds of tests" and has not tested positive before, a source told ESPN.

    Who knew a player rehabbing from a major injury might try to help the process along with some chemical assistance?

    Such a shame when the masking agents fail and the PEDs are detected

    To be fair, didn't this just happen to Marcus Gilbert? Or is my memory worse than usual tonight?

    Chris Hogan is gonna rack up stats.

    AFter the nfl only gave gronk a 1 game suspension for his cheap shot hit on Bill's receiver Tre White, I am SHOCKED that they got penalized at all. Let alone the history of favor they usually get from the nfl.

    True that with regard to both Gilbert & Hogan

    I am highly confident some players on every team in the league use banned meds to enhance performance and/or rehab from injuries

    The other constant is when the player is caught they claim they had no idea how they ingested a banned substance or, like Edelman, challenge the test results

    Standard operating procedure from Edelman in this statement

    "I am very sorry -- I don't know what happened," Edelman posted on his Instagram page. "I've taken many, many tests obviously over the course of my career, and nothing like this has ever happened."

    Gronk just took the law into his own hands a bit on that one. I still like the guy though.
