Mark Sanchez blames “unknowing supplement contamination” for PED suspension

Mark Sanchez has confirmed that he is suspended for violating the NFL’s policy on performance-enhancing substances, but he denies knowingly using such substances.

Sanchez released a statement saying he thinks a supplement he took was contaminated with a banned substance.

“The NFL has informed me that I have tested positive for a substance on the banned substance list,” Sanchez wrote. “I was blindsided by the news and I want to say unequivocally that I have never cheated or attempted to gain a competitive advantage by using a banned performance enhancing substance. During the past 9 years as an NFL player I have been subject to 73 drug tests — an average of over 8 tests per season — and all but one have been clean. I have taken the same regimen of supplements for the past five years without any issues. The timing and results of my tests establish circumstances of unknowing supplement contamination, not the use of performance enhancing substances.”

Why do you need PEDs to lift a clipboard?

Re: Mark Sanchez blames “unknowing supplement contamination” for PED suspension

So many studies out there saying supplements don't work or do next to nothing but people still swear by them. One would think pro athletes would know this fact with a nutrition expert on staff but apparently that is not the case. Any basic college 101 nutrition course states the same thing so why is he taking all this stuff. Just eat healthy meals.
