The National Football League has suspended Joselio Hanson, Philadelphia Eagles cornerback, for four games for violating anti-doping rules of the league.

David Cornwell, Hanson’s lawyer, said that Hanson had tested positive for a diuretic after a National Conference championship game against Arizona last year.

From Google.com:

“The urine specimen that Joselio provided after the game tested positive for a diuretic,” Cornwell said. “Joselio did not use steroids or any other substance that would enhance his performance.”

Cornwell said Hanson used the product because he “felt bloated” after eating a Chinese meal, taking a remedy that turned out to be a diuretic.

Cornwell also denounced the NFL’s inclusion of diuretics on their banned list, saying it shouldn’t be assumed they are used to mask the use of performance-enhancing drugs.

“It is noteworthy that the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) recently implemented amendments that eviscerate the misplaced presumption about diuretics embedded in the NFL’s steroid policy and reduce discipline for diuretics to include warnings and, where appropriate, suspension,” Cornwell said.

It seems that the Eagles have once again been in the limelight for all the wrong reasons. This revelation also highlighted the fact that there may be a possibility of a lack of understanding or misunderstanding about steroids and diuretics in sporting events.
