As if there isn't enough shady things in other countries that can trip up an NFL player, now they must stay away from meat if they visit Mexico or China. This according to a memo sent out to players from the NFL warning of contaminated meat in the two countries. Ravens wide receiver Steve Smith Sr tweeted out the memo Tuesday.
Thanks for the heads up. If you have a few steak dinners on vacation your screwed https://t.co/SLde2ho8gj pic.twitter.com/e0g53BfsIE

There is evidence that some meat produced in China and Mexico may be contaminated with clenbuterol, an anabolic agent which is banned by the NFL Policy on Performance-Enhancing Substances.
