Tania Ganguli and Dan Graziano reports that Texans LTย Duane Brown‘s 10-game suspension for violating the NFL’s ย performance-enhancing drugs policy has been overturned.

Theย NFL Players Association proved to the NFL that this was the reason Brown tested positive forย clenbuterol. They also issues a letterย warning players that consumption of too much meat in Mexico and China could cause a positive test for the anabolic substance clenbuterol.
Brown, 30, is in the fourth year of hisย seven-year, $56.2 million contractย that includesย $22.08 million guaranteed. He’ll make a base salary of $7 million in 2015 and 2016.
