Raleigh, NC -- NC State sophomore wide receiver Teddy Hoffmann will miss the 2026 season as he serves a one-year suspension for violating NCAA rules.

Hoffmann tested positive for a performance-enhancing substance. The positive test carries an automatic NCAA suspension of one calendar year, including one season of competition. 

“Teddy made a mistake that he’s taken responsibility for in front of his teammates and coaches,” said Wolfpack head coach Dave Doeren. “It’s an unfortunate reminder about the importance of always checking with the sports medicine staff before taking any type of medication or supplement to make sure it’s permitted. I know he will learn and grow from this experience.”

Hoffmann played in all 13 games last season as a true freshman, tallying 25 receptions for 359 yards and three touchdowns. He also threw for a 59-yard touchdown.
