I think this is a little naive. Anabolics may have fallen out of favor for athletes but that’s because better stuff was created. PEDs, which is what people colloquially mean by steroids, are caught in the systems of athletes every year. For example in 2022 alone DeAndre Hopkins and Fernando Tatis both served long suspensions for PEDs. Yes, they both used the old fall back of a banned substance was contained in a legal workout supplement but that’s a really thin excuse. They aren’t using them to get huge anymore, they are using them for improved energy, endurance, and the key for football: recovery.
