POSTED 1:22 p.m. EDT, September 1, 2007REPORT: WADE WILSON ADMITS TO RECEIVING STEROIDS, HGH by Michael David Smith
A day after it was reported that Patriots safety Rodney Harrison has been suspended four games by the NFL for admitting to obtaining human growth hormone, Gary Myers and T.J. Quinn of the New York Daily News report that Cowboys quarterbacks coach Wade Wilson is involved in the same investigation.
The report says that Wilson admitted receiving steroids and HGH from Signature Pharmacy in Orlando when he was a Bears assistant from 2004 to 2006. It is not clear whether he obtained them solely for personal use or whether he shared them with others. Wilson was an NFL quarterback for 18 seasons, almost all as a backup.
Per the Daily News, Wilson "faces a yet-to-be-announced punishment." League discipline rules aren't as clear-cut for coaches as they are for players, but it's safe to say the league is not going to look kindly on an assistant coach who's involved with performance-enhancing drugs.
The Daily News report indicates that things could get worse for the NFL. According to Myers and Quinn, Harrison and Wilson "are the first of what is expected to be many connected to the NFL to arise in the investigation."
