Matthew Judon and the New England Patriots absolutely dominated the Arizona Cardinals on Monday Night Football, racking up six sacks, and two turnovers (one of which they returned for a touchdown) in a 27-13 victory.
Judon himself was a big part of that impressive performance, racking up four tackles, 1.5 sacks, one tackle for loss and a couple of quarterback hits. Apparently it was enough to make the NFL suspicious, as they requested a drug test from the star linebacker just a few days later.
And let’s just say that Judon was not the slightest bit impressed.
Judon posted the text message he received from the NFL to his Twitter page along with the caption, “Dear @NFLPA @NFL leave me the F alone please. It’s no way this is random. I take melatonin to sleep sometimes. The rest if just vibes.”
Judon has certainly been playing like a man who’s on more than just melatonin, as he’s racked up 14.5 sacks through the first 14 weeks of the season.
From the sound of it, this isn’t the first time the NFL has come after him this season, and it probably won’t be the last if he continues to play like this.

Patriots Back In The Playoff Hunt
With Monday night’s win over the Cardinals, the Pats once again find themselves in the AFC playoff picture, as they currently hold the third and final wild card spot in the conference.
Up next, they’ll take their 7-6 record to Las Vegas to take on a familiar face in Josh McDaniels and his Raiders. McDaniels’ team is coming off an embarrassing loss to Baker Mayfield and the Los Angeles Rams last Thursday. It’s been a disappointing season for the former Patriots offensive coordinator, as his job is believed to be in jeopardy thanks to a handful of brutal losses that have left his team with disappointing 5-8 record.
