Dallas Cowboys’ defensive end David Irving is an advocate for marijuana use, and took the NFL to blast in an expletive-laden post on Instagram on Friday.
Here is what Irving posted, via the Dallas Morning News.
“check this , y’all wanna judge n say what’s right or wrong. These guys prescribe me Xanax bars , ambient , and painkillers , some of us , like myself have been smoking weed since 12. Never been in trouble w the law. Always had a 3.0 or higher, too. It’s natural , I’d much rather smoke weed than take all that lab made [expletive]. You [expletive] talk so much [expletive] as if I’m on heroin. You probably got a blunt in your mouth right now. So stfu. The nfl laws on weed are [expletive] n we all know it. I’m from Cali. I’ve had my medical card. It’s nothing wrong with it. Also. Every game you seen me play in , I was medicated. I don’t see you or any of my coaches or previous coaches complaining about my play.”
Irving has been suspended for the first four games of the 2018 season for violating the league’s substance-abuse policy. The league levied the suspension back in June.
