Seattle Seahawks starting cornerback Richard Sherman said he won his appeal of a four-game suspension for violating the National Football League’s performance-enhancing drug policy.

Sherman, who along with teammate Brandon Browner tested positive for an undisclosed substance, appealed last month based on errors in the chain of custody of his sample and because of mistakes made by the tester, ESPN said. News of the initial ban was reported Nov. 26 and the substance in question was the prescription drug Adderall, a stimulant used to treat attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder, or ADHD, ESPN said.
