NFLPA reminds players NFL's annual drug testing begins on 4/20

By Ryan Wong

With little more than a month to go, the NFLPA sent out an announcement to its players via Twitter on Thursday, noting that the NFL will start conducting annual drug tests on April 20th.

The amusing start date for random drug testing was agreed upon by the NFLPA and the NFL in the NFL’s Policy and Program of Substance Abuse in 2014.

The union is giving its players just enough notice so that they can prepare for drug tests that begin, again, on 4/20.

I’d like to think that the NFL and the NFLPA had a good little chuckle while they were negotiating all of this last year.
