Tennessee Titans' Nazeeh Johnson Blames Fertility Meds for NFL Suspension

In a shocking turn of events, Tennessee Titans cornerback Nazeeh Johnson has come out to explain the reason behind his six-game suspension from the NFL. According to Johnson, the suspension stemmed from a positive drug test, which he claims was a result of fertility medication he was taking as he and his wife attempted to start a family. The 28-year-old NFL player revealed that he and his wife had been undergoing fertility treatment after discovering he was infertile. Johnson stated that he was unaware the medication contained a substance banned by the NFL. The couple recently suffered a miscarriage, describing the period as extremely difficult for them. Despite this, they remain hopeful of growing their family, with nine viable eggs remaining from their fertility treatment. Johnson used this experience to caution his fellow NFL players about the importance of verifying the ingredients of any medication before consumption. 'Do not put anything in your body without following the process and getting approval beforehand,' Johnson advised in a statement. Johnson joined the Titans in July, after spending his first four NFL seasons with the Kansas City Chiefs. His suspension, which takes effect on August 30, means he will miss the Titans' first six regular-season games if he remains on the roster. Johnson's wife revealed that the family appealed the suspension, submitting over 50 documents, but the NFL denied their appeal. For Johnson and his wife, the suspension comes at a time when they are dealing with a more personal struggle - their efforts to have a child.
