Because the league is prohibited from going on the record about a drug suspension until all appeals have been heard. My guess is that this has not gone through that process as of yet.
Exactly .........there is a chance that he still plays Week 16 if he keeps appealing.....the next suspension is a year at least, it is worth fighting all the way

Horrible analogy. If I had already busted at work for said beer, no, I wouldn't sneak a beer if it were not allowed at my work. That would be idiotic.

You said workplace . Perhaps you should read again.

If it was illegal in your workplace. Meaning it's against the rules period, so drinking it anytime would be sneaking it.. Is Randy smoking up at the facility? Then why the hell would I mean that?

naw what the league need to do is stop testing for plant that naturally grows from the ground to heal vs keeping the greedy pockets pockets full in these drys supplying these DRUGS are prescription thats more than likely cause other problems and addictions... man please the real world is not a fool... Basketball don't even test get with it always late to the party is the NFL... real people know what it is...

it is the rule but thats my opinion always be my opinion ....... something thats proven to help u and with his issue thats one of the best meds he can take vs those pills.... call me what u want I'm a realist

He obviously does not have any will power. So whatever. Beer is legal and weed is not shows how backwards the world is. So many deaths around beer and none around weed. But that's a whole other issue.
Ever since Colorado legalized pot traffic related deaths jumped traminously.

I feel terrible for Randy Gregory. He's an intelligent person by all accounts, yet the decision to forsake a profitable opportunity for whatever substance he's addicted to is just a tragedy. He's enslaved by this impulse, and I hope for him he breaks this bondage. So sad.

Was it directly related to pot? Police reports saying they were under the influence? Of course you should never drive period under the influence of anything. Why take the risk of hurting others. Anyway your statement needs more information. Have you seen some statistics backing what your saying?

I can't even say I'm disappointed. I was already not counting on being able to utilize him.

I've already mourned and come to terms with the loss. What a loser.

The definition of “marijuana-related” in the Rocky Mountain High Intensity Drug Traffic Area report makes it difficult to draw conclusions from the traffic fatality data, which were drawn from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.

In the introduction of its report, the Rocky Mountain HIDTA states that terms such as “marijuana-related” or “tested positive for marijuana” do “not necessarily prove that marijuana was the cause of the incident.” The section on “Impaired Driving” also states that, when it comes to traffic fatalities, “marijuana-related” entails “any time marijuana shows up in the toxicology report [of drivers]. It could be marijuana only or marijuana with other drugs and/or alcohol.”

From 2009 to 2012, the “medical marijuana commercialization years,” the average yearly marijuana-related traffic deaths increased by 48 percent compared with the “early medical marijuana era” between 2006 and 2008. In the first two years after the recreational use of marijuana became legal (2013 to 2014), the average yearly marijuana-related traffic deaths increased by another 41 percent.

From 2006 to 2014 overall, marijuana-related traffic deaths increased by 154 percent, from 37 fatalities with drivers testing positive for marijuana in 2006 to 94 in 2014 — hardly an insignificant increase, as Johnson claimed. For comparison, there were 170 alcohol-related fatalities per year in Colorado between 2003 and 2012, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

The Rocky Mountain HIDTA report emphasizes that the proportion of marijuana-related traffic fatalities to traffic fatalities as a whole increased as well: In 2014, marijuana-related traffic fatalities made up 19.26 percent of all traffic deaths, up from 6.92 percent in 2006.

But the increase in the proportion of marijuana-related traffic deaths could merely mean that more people are using the drug — not necessarily that more people are under the influence of marijuana when involved in fatal traffic accidents.
