The NFL Players Association did not vote on the completely overhauled NFL drug testing process on Tuesday, but many believe the vote will come Wednesday or Thursday.

The vote will be to approve or shoot down a proposed overhaul of the NFL’s drug testing policy and could very well result in the reinstatement of players such as Cleveland Browns receiver Josh Gordon and Denver Broncos receiver Wes Welker.

NFLPA Vote Could Reinstate Josh Gordon, Wes Welker

ESPN reports that the feeling around NFL offices is that the suspended players over the old frug policy will be reinstated and join their teams in the near future.

“The NFLPA was expecting to take a vote that would have revised policy and allowed for the immediate reinstatement of almost 20 players currently under suspension, including star receivers Josh Gordon of the Cleveland Browns and Wes Welker of the Denver Broncos, as well as cornerback Orlando Scandrick of the Dallas Cowboys, sources said.

A vote on Wednesday has not been ruled out, a person directly involved in the discussions told ESPN. The source also said that the suspended players who would be reinstated believe they will soon return to the field.”

The proposed changes to the drug program would put the NFL on par with the other major sporting leagues as well as the Olympics and military service. The players could elect to move forward with this policy, but many believe issues with the proposed DUI policy could cause some disagreements among the ranks.

Look for the ruling on the new drug policy to come down in the coming days and with that the status of the suspended players.
