Ravens star defensive player Haloti Ngata has been suspended for four games according to the NFL’s PED policy, the Baltimore Ravens announced. Ngata released a statement saying it was for his use of Adderall.

This is particularly distressing for Ravens fans, as the veteran defensive tackle has been the anchor in the middle of the Ravens defense, which has otherwise been lackluster this season.

“Haloti is having a really standout year,” said defensive coordinator Dean Pees told BaltimoreRavens.com last month. Ngata is topping the Ravens roster with his stats of two interceptions, seven passes defensed, two forced fumbles, 32 tackles, and two sacks.

This, of course, comes after losing top cornerback Jimmy Smith to an injury earlier this season, and at a crucial time when the Ravens head to Miami for a must-win game.

We can’t help but think of another Baltimore sports star who was busted for Adderall at a crucial time in the season. Who knows what consequences that had on the Orioles’ playoff success and what Ngata’s suspension will mean for the Ravens going forward.
