The Baltimore Ravens were able to defeat the New Orleans Saints Monday night thanks to a breakout performance from running back Kenyan Drake.
Drake took to social media on Tuesday to reveal that he received a “random” drug test after his impressive game.
“Got a *random* drug test,” Drake tweeted along with the laughing emoji.

Drake has been splitting time along with a committee of running backs thus far in Baltimore this season, but clearly showed his value Monday night by rushing for 93 yards and scoring two touchdowns in the game.
Ravens fans replied to Drake’s tweet, saying that this alleged drug test could not have been a coincidence.

The NFL’s current drug-testing policy is that they are allowed to perform random drug tests year-round, with every player getting tested at least once per year with a urine sample.
However, Drake is not the first player to be skeptical of the NFL’s timing on these drug tests.
Philadelphia Eagles star wide receiver A.J. Brown blasted the NFL’s policy last month after he says he was tested following the Eagles’ Week 8 game against the Pittsburgh Steelers.
“I would have a drug test this morning huh lol. Roger (Goodell) this is not random,” Brown tweeted.
I would have a drug test this morning huh lol 🙄 Rogerrrrr this is not random 😭@NFL

Brown had perhaps his best performance of the season in that game, recording six catches for 156 yards and three touchdowns.
It certainly doesn’t appear to be all that random of a selection by the NFL for these drug tests considering Brown and Drake’s admissions on the matter.
