The Kansas City Chiefs are headed to another AFC Championship Game after they took down the Buffalo Bills in the divisional round.
Part of the reason the Chiefs were able to pull out the win was because of the play of the defense, which held the Bills to 24 points and stymied a few of their best offensive skill players.
One such defensive star who was instrumental to the Chiefs’ success was Kansas City cornerback L’Jarius Sneed, who played a critical role in limiting opposing wide receiver Stefon Diggs’ stat line in the win.
But Sneed didn’t come away unscathed, as he sent out a tweet implying the NFL was drug testing him following the big win.
“I’m tired of getting drug tested,” he said.
I’m tired of getting drug tested

Random drug tests aren’t uncommon in the NFL, but they appear to keep popping up for players immediately after they perform well in a game.
It also sounds like a bit of a hassle for players who’re in the midst of a playoff run, as Sneed alluded to in his social media post.
The NFL doesn’t want anyone or any team to have an unfair advantage in the most critical moments of a season, though, so the drug tests make sense to ensure the integrity of the game.
The timing is just a bit interesting for Sneed and the Chiefs as the request appeared to come in minutes after Kansas City began celebrating their sixth consecutive trip to the AFC Championship Game.
The next stop for the Chiefs is Baltimore with a clash against the top-seeded Ravens with a Super Bowl berth on the line.
