New York Jets running back Le’Veon Bell seemed to make it clear back in November: he claimed he did five random HGH blood tests in the span of 10 weeks and declared he wouldn’t take part on a test again.
On Friday, he tweeted a photo of a note he received telling him he had been randomly selected once again to complete an HGH blood test. His response? “@NFL I bet I don’t.”
As many people are pointing out, a refusal to take a drug test is considered failing it and could result in a suspension. So it’s possible he could give in and take the test anyway.
Here’s the tweet:

And his original tweets from November:
