NFL: 'No Evidence of Targeting' Eric Reid on Multiple Random Drug Tests

The NFL and NFL Players Associated released a statement on Wednesday concerning Eric Reid and league's performance enhancing drug policy, saying they didn't target the Carolina Panthers safety after Reid was selected for seven random drug tests this season.

Reid has said that the tests don't seem random, as it seemed every other week he was selected to submit a drug test. Reid was signed by the Panthers at the end of September, after spending his first five seasons with the San Francisco 49ers.

"I've been here 11 weeks, I've been drug-tested seven times," Reid said after a Week 15 loss to the New Orleans Saints.
