Former San Diego State and NFL running back Femi Ayanbadejo settled his lawsuit against a Nevada supplement company whose product contained synthetic steroids.
Ayanbadejo tested positive in an NFL steroids test in January 2007 and was then suspended for four games. He claims that he ingested the banned substances as part of a pro-hormone product called Max LMG. The label did not list any banned substances. Ayanbadejo alleges that the stigma of his positive test has prevented him from getting back into the NFL since.
A lawyer for the supplement company said Ayanbadejo tested positive for exactly what was on the label of Max LMG. The product since has been discontinued. It had not been certified as safe by the NFL or the players association.
