Yes, I was told by 2 NFL players that I was smoking with that in their best estimate 70% of the league smokes marijuana. The coaches simply tell them when the tests are going to take place, and they take detox drinks.

My source? Two NFL starting players.

Answer 3

Yes, players in the NFL use drugs.

Legal Usage: Players use drugs when the are under the care of doctors and trainers, much like when hurt or sick people use drugs in every day life. The use of the drugs is monitored by both the staff and the League for the overall health and welfare of the player.

Recreational Drugs: The use of recreational drugs is a factor in the NFL. The League has rules against the use of recreational drugs, and a player can be suspended for using them. The NFL maintains a drug testing program, and players are tested at random times during the year. If a player fails a test they are entered into the NFL Substance Abuse program. The first offense is a 4 game suspension, a Second offense leads to an 8 game suspension and a third failed testis a one year suspension with the player having to appeal to the Commissioner's Office for reinstatement.

Steroids & Performance Enhancing Drugs: The use of these drugs, typically Steroids, HGH and drugs like Adderall are banned by the NFL. If a player is caught using these drugs in the NFL they will be suspended. The suspension is the same as with recreational drugs. If a player is caught using these types of drugs they are entered into the Substance Abuse Program which dramatically increases the number of tests the player is required to take during the year.
