Did you submit this a vector artwork in EPS, SVG or AI file?  Or did you submit a rasterized JPG?

 

If it's original artwork by you, did you submit a signed Property release so Adobe can sell it for commercial use?

 

Have you read the Stock Contributor User Guide?

As said by @Jill_C, it's your turn first to tell us the reason Adobe gave you. But it may well be, that the logo on the hat, or the t-shirt could have something to do with the rejection.

 

A secondary rejection may well be a style that is inappropriate for Adobe stock because of the sexual innuendo. You should tone down the image.

Technical issues:

There shouldn't be aliasing on the lines. This looks heavily like a bad upscale. Also for an illustration, the lines should be “sharper” with as said above with a nice anti aliasing applied. I still stay with my other remarks here.

 

The first would be IP, the second probably commercial appeal or non-compliant file.
