Sounds like he got busted for trace amounts of some drug that was basically the result of contamination of the prescription that he actually takes by the pharmacy. Really odd, but we should still beat the Giants/Redskins, assuming Elliott is back in the fold.

I’d like to know what the drug is/was he tested for.

If Simpleton’s post is accurate, I’d also like to know how it’s at all acceptable for a player to be suspended for trace amounts of a banned drug if it was found in a prescription drug?

If Quinn isn’t breaking a rule on purpose to gain an edge, what on earth is the point of suspending an athlete and handicapping a franchise?

This seems like a good time to point out that Tyreek Hill was literally recorded threatening his son and calling his wife a bitch and he's getting suspended for ~checks notes~...0 games.

Probenecid. It's listed as a masking agent but they even said with the amount that was in his body it was not a sufficient amount to mask steroid use.

That's pretty fucking dumb if true to suspend a guy for something that can't mask anything or help his performance.

If it was clearly on the list, and he didn’t do his due diligence, that’s on him, but if it was a case of contamination, that’s a whole other story.

If this is over seizure medication, Quinn should retire and sue the mother fuckers for a ton of money.

Once again the NFL acts way outside the realm of common sense and bends over backwards to suspend a Cowboy.

I suddenly am questioning our history of having a defensive player suspended every year, especially when you recall that Scandrick was suspended under questionable circumstances as well.

Combined with the Elliott railroading and this is another incident that spells conspiracy.

This guy is like a ten year vet. He never has a problem with drugs but the second he becomes a Cowboy he gets suspended.

:lol

Yeah right.

Personally I'd never heard he ever had a problem with seizures. Was this common knowledge among most fans?

Wow. I was gonna make a snarky comment in the injury thread that he’d be suspended for something that happened during his recovery.

At at least it wasn’t Terrance Williams-like.

I would bet he appeals and wins this nonsense.
