Steelers midfielder Joe Haden was not as happy as he could have returned to Pittsburgh on Tuesday morning after a win on the road against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
Haden was one of two Steelers to be called for drug testing when the team returned to Pittsburgh. These drug tests did not take place on the team's premises the next day, after Haden and his teammates had a chance to rest. They arrived at the airport as soon as they left the plane.
Haden was not happy.
According to Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com, Haden was informed of this test as the team left Tampa after the Steelers' 30-27 win on Monday night.
"When we left Tampa, they said to themselves, 'Joe, when we land, we have a drug test,'" he said.
"We did it at the airport, just when we land. We are basically where TSA would check us. This guy is sitting there, we have a bathroom and we do it like in the training room, but we are sitting in the sacred hall.
The test took place around 3 am, Haden having not returned home before 4:15.
"It was me, the boot maker Chris Boswell had one, it was as if seven of us had had a screening test. I said to myself, "Dude, you can just tell me to come back in the morning, I do not understand," said Haden.
