New York Giants: Golden Tate Could Take Action Against Doctor After Suspension

It’s safe to say that New York Giants wide receiver Golden Tate isn’t happy with at least one of his doctors – Tate was suspended for four games due to violating the league’s substance policy, but as it turns out, the suspension wasn’t because of a usual PED but because of something that was prescribed to Tate from a fertility clinic. According to Tate, he was misled in the status of the drug and whether or not it would result in trouble from the league.

“I think ultimately because the doctor had said no, it’s not a banned substance and I have prescribed it to other NFL guys,” Tate said on Wednesday, after being asked about not consulting the league before taking the substance.
