Justin Gatlin Works Out For The Arizona Cardinals
Justin Gatlin and the NFL seem like a perfect fit. One the one hand you have Gatlin, who tested positive for testosterone and steroids this past April. Then you have the NFL, a league who's fans don't seem to mind too much if their players are caught cheating (see Shawne Merriman). Gatlin worked out with the Texans a couple of weeks ago, and worked out this Tuesday with the Arizona Cardinals.
Gatlin is facing an 8-year ban from track and field events, so he might as well explore all of his options. The man certainly has speed, but whether he can get open and catch a ball still remains to be seen. Oh yea, and we also don't know if he has speed when he is "drug free".

Just cause you have speed doesn't mean you'll be good. It takes route running. Leaping ability. And you have to catch the damn ball.
Don't think he'll stick w/ any team
Here's an outstanding article from the Washington Post about all the different people involved in Gatlin's positive test and whether it's possible that the masseuse rub him down with steroids.
