NFL players can use albuterol or methylphenidate with a therapeutic use exemption (for example) even though both are PEDs.
If exogenous testosterone for a therapeutic purpose raises a player's deficient testoserone level into the normal range, but not above, in order to treat a legitimite medical condition, why shouldn't they be allowed to compete the same as any other therapeutic use exemption?
I can argue toradol (for pain) is a PED because the player can participate at a higher performance level than than they otherwise could because of a drug improving their pain tolerance and thus their performance on the field.
So no more pain meds, suck it up or sit the bench.
