NFLPA, citing health and safety concerns, wants information on DEA raid of Washington Football Team trainer

ASHBURN, Va. -- The NFL Player's Association has sent a request for information to the NFL regarding the recent raid involving the Washington Football Team's head athletic trainer, citing health and safety concerns.

Washington head trainer Ryan Vermillion was placed on administrative leave after the DEA searched both his home and his office at the team's training facility. He has not been charged with anything and the team put out a statement on Monday saying the DEA's investigation was not team-related.

"We believe this situation directly impacts player health and safety," the NFLPA said in a statement.
