‘Agitated’ Ray Lewis says he ‘never, ever took’ SWATS products
NEW ORLEANS – Smiling, even laughing, at questions about a report linking him to a company that purports to make performance-enhancers, Baltimore Ravens linebacker Ray Lewis says he “never, ever took” the stuff.
Lewis also says he’s “agitated,” not angry, that the story has become part of the Super Bowl-week prelude to Baltimore’s game against the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday.
He said Wednesday that he’s certain his teammates won’t be distracted by the report in Sports Illustrated. The magazine said Lewis sought help from a company that says its deer-antler spray and pills contain a banned product connected to human growth hormone. Lewis is the leading tackler in the NFL post-season after returning from a torn right triceps that sidelined him for 10 games.
