D. J. Williams and Ryan McBean were sentenced to suspensions because they gave “non-human” urine samples to a drug testing officer

The National Football League sentenced to suspensions D. J. Williams, a linebacker, and Ryan McBean, a defensive lineman, of the team Denver Broncos for violation of steroid policy. They were suspended from 6 games. But they were not banned for application of steroids. They didn’t test positive for steroids or other forbidden medicines. They were accused in providing “non-human” urine samples to the drug testing officer.
D. J. William said in an interview that he had never tested for any prohibited medication during eight years of his career. The football player added that he was proud of his records. The linebacker of the NFL claimed that he was also proud of his manner in that he conducted himself, being a sportsperson.
Peter Schaffer, the defensive attorney for McBean, affirmed that the NFL had violated rights of the defensive lineman. He noted that since McBean had never tested positive for any prohibited medication, the NFL didn’t have any right to ban him.
Peter Schaffer noticed that he intended to make it clear that neither D. J. Williams, nor Ryan McBean tested positive for banned preparations.
A lawsuit was filed in Denver County Court against bans of these football players.
The players stated that the drug testing officer had violated certain rules related to the procedure of collecting urine samples.
Peter Schaffer noticed that several similarities had been between his client and Ryan Braun. Braun won his appeal linked with his suspension from 50 games for intake of testosterone. Ryan Braun could prove that the drug testing officer Dino Laurenzi violated steroid policy.
As for Laurenzi, he was defended and supported by various anti-doping agencies. The WADA also supported this drug testing officer. It was claimed that there was the same procedure of collecting and sending urine samples not only for the MLB but also for the WADA.
But as for the drug testing officer that collected samples of Williams and McBean, another attitude was displayed to him. He was fired by the NFL for incorrect doing his duty.
At the hearing the NFL administrators acknowledged that the drug testing officer violated the rules linked with collection of urine samples.
Nevertheless, the appeal on behalf of the players was rejected.
