Jurickson Profar Suspended for Entire 2026 Season After Failed Appeal

Atlanta Braves outfielder Jurickson Profar will miss the entire 2026 season after his appeal of a 162-game suspension for a positive test for performance-enhancing drugs was denied. The resolution of the appeal, confirmed by ESPN's Jeff Passan, upholds the full-season ban. This ruling effectively removes Profar from the Braves' roster for the duration of the upcoming campaign.
