New England Patriots Linebacker Kyle Van Noy had a fantastic night in Atlanta for the Patriots. In the win, the 30-year-old eight-year NFL veteran combined for eight tackles, including two sacks. Late in the fourth quarter, he also returned an interception 35 yards for a touchdown, putting the game out of reach for the Patriots.

All in all, it was a complete performance for the LB. Soon after, the NFL borderline disrespected Van Noy by asking him to be part of a random drug test. This request did not impress the linebacker and took to Twitter to share his disappointment.

“Yoooo y’all won’t believe this…… I make a couple plays last night and guess what happens??? The @NFL is drug testing me today 😂😂😂😂😂😂 you can’t make this up!” the linebacker tweeted.

Don’t worry Kyle, Myles Garrett had it worse than you

When you perform exceptionally well in sport, a constant plea for a drug test in a short span is certainly frustrating. Nearly a month ago, Myles Garrett took to Twitter to share his frustration on his second random drug test. Being the funny guy he is, he chose to look at the funny side of this fiasco. He blamed his gun biceps for the tests.

Coincidentally, the two times he has been asked to give the test, he had worn sleeveless jerseys. “I go sleeveless TWO TIMES and get “randomly” drug tested BOTH times… I’d try 3 for 3 but they can miss me with the blood draw, not the vibe. #SleevelessMyles is retired”, he tweeted.
