Marquise Goodwin may have run afoul of USADA’s drug testing guidelines for Olympians, but he is in the clear as far as the NFL is concerned. The 49ers released a statement on Tuesday explaining that Goodwin will not face punishment from the league. Furthermore, Goodwin shed light on what exactly happened with the testing agency. 
“Never in my life have I failed a test,” Goodwin said in a statement. “I have never been opposed to testing and, in fact, have always been compliant with each and every protocol and policy associated with my competitive career in track and field. More than a year ago, I decided to cease competing in the sport in order to concentrate 100 percent on my NFL career. Therefore, I discontinued all practices associated with competing in track and field, including submitting my ‘whereabouts’ information. It appears that because I did not inform USADA of my plans, my name was inadvertently included in their 2017 testing pool. I greatly appreciate the support of the San Francisco 49ers and the National Football League as I work to clarify this matter.”
After signing a two-year deal with the 49ers in which he could make up to $8MM, Goodwin has little motivation to buck the NFL in favor of track and field. The Niners have big plans for him too and he currently profiles as the team’s No. 2 receiving option, behind Pierre Garcon and ahead of Jeremy Kerley.
With the Bills, Goodwin totaled 49 catches and six touchdowns over four seasons. He set career highs last year with 15 appearances, 29 catches, 68 targets, and 431 yards. He also matched a personal watermark with three touchdowns.
I don’t think Goodwin or Kelrley are very good so it makes no difference who is the better option.
Sorry for the type-o
