The NFL is investigating whether or not the San Diego Chargers used a banned substance in their recent loss to the Denver Broncos.
No, the banned substance isn’t steroids or anything like that.
It’s a sticky thing of goop or tape that receivers put on their gloves to help them catch the ball better.
One of the refs apparently spotted a manager on the field with the illegal substance on a towel.
When he refused to hand over the towel, the ref made him empty his pockets and found skin-colored or clear tape.
They face either a fine or losing a draft pick!
The Chargers issued a statement that said:
“[We are] aware of the inquiry and are cooperating fully with the League.”
They ended up blowing a huge lead and lost the game 35-24.
Cheating your way to a loss is pretty HIGHlarious.
Also, it’s not cool because cheating is unacceptable.
Cheaters never prosper!
