On Monday, the NFL informed the NFL Players Association that they plan to suspend four players who were accused of using performance-enhancing drugs in an Al-Jazeera America documentary if those players don’t sit down for interviews with them by August 26.

Steelers linebacker James Harrison is one of those four players, which led to a humorous reaction from the veteran when he found out that he was scheduled for a random PED test on Tuesday. Harrison posted a video to Facebook of his reaction to learning about the test -- his eyebrows were making a break for the top of his head when he feigned surprise at the timing of the random test -- before hopping in a golf cart to take it.

The video stops there. As Harrison previously learned, league rules mean he can’t actually film the drug test itself.

He’s previously denied the allegation in a sworn affidavit and said he’ll sit for an interview if Roger Goodell comes to his house for it, which seems unlikely so we’ll see if the suspension threat leads to a change in his position.
