Separately, I don't know why teams don't have a standing rule that no one is to take a supplement without running it past a Redskins trainer first. I know they're ostensibly grownups, but this kind of thing should be preventable.

(Bold mine) Agree 100%. Where the trainer investigates the drug to make sure the ingredients are kosher, then asks a league official to make sure that drug is OK.
Jenkins, Jordan Black last season, are cases like these really a case of innocent "over the counter" or even "off the shelf" medicines tripping the NFLs drug tests? Or is that more likely an excuse a player uses when caught knowingly taking something against NFL rules?
