Adam Walker has tested positive for cocaine and has been banned from all training and playing activity, Wakefield have confirmed.
The 26-year-old prop failed a drugs test after the Betfred Super League win at Widnes on July 14.
A statement from the club read: "Wakefield Trinity received notification from UK Anti-Doping and the Rugby Football League that Adam Walker tested positively for cocaine in a drugs test, following the recent fixture against Widnes Vikings.
"As a consequence, under Rugby Football League anti-doping regulations, he has been suspended from all training and playing activity.
"The club fully respects this suspension and are currently reviewing this matter."
Bradford-born Walker, previously of Huddersfield, Hull KR and St Helens, joined Wakefield in May. He has played seven games for the club this season.
A Scotland international since 2013, he was earlier this week named in Steve McCormack's 40-man initial squad for the 2017 World Cup.
Vikings half-back Rangi Chase was also this week suspended after testing positive for cocaine.
