Browning led the Bengals to a wild comeback victory in front of his home fans – beating the Minnesota Vikings 27-24.

Browning shared the text in a now-deleted post to his Instagram Story that read, ‘This is Joe, DCO on behalf of the NFL. You’re on my list for a urine steroid test tomorrow.

‘I will be in the testing area from 9:30-12:30. Please confirm receiving this.’
