Gregory may be suspended again

[The Natural]

Jerruh needs to come out of his pockets to make this issue "go away" until mid-February or so

 

[romothesavior]

Idk he may be a 3-4 olb but he seemed to flash some nice athleticism and it's cool to have a lead and have a team pass all three downs and then have all hands on deck for the pass rush it ends up being like blood in the water

Agreed. My preference would be to have him available, but he's very, very replaceable at this point.

 

[BotchedLobotomy]

What I don't get is why a guy like Leveon Bell gets suspended twice for substance abuse, both times its reduced and now I hear on Sirius XM from a reporter in Pitt that there is some deal negotiated between Bell and the NFL that they will only suspend him for 4 games if he flunks another test.

What is going on there?

 

[jazzcat22]

Not sure if he can be suspended during playoffs. His appeal hearing is not until January and I think by the rules, any suspension would be the following season.

 

[MarionBarberThe4th]

Irving has replaced him. Just consider him to be last year's 2nd rounder instead of Gregory.

We kind of have a no name defense but Irving , Gregory, law, Collins, mayowa, and Thornton bring some semblance of juice to the rush if all are together and rotating

 

[LocimusPrime]

Mara ain't got juice. Jerry has the juice. Maras team just got fined and a draft picked taken away (well downgraded to the end of the 4th TD supplementals) for using a walkie talkie for like 1 series


Jerry is the emperor. Mara is just Count Dooku.

How the heck does someone get suspended in the middle of the game

My only guess is he's like dodging tests which makes it harsher? Or maybe missing mandatory "drug rehab" meetings.


If I were him I would just retire and sue the NFL

 

[AzorAhai]

Wasn't the report saying his appeal would be heard in January? I'm not sure how long it takes to rule on it, but this was always a threat.

 

[Setackin]

How many plays did he get?

 

[MarionBarberThe4th]

Agreed. He's a decent third-down pass rush specialist, and showed burst at times tonight. He was overplayed tonight due to the lack of bodies and trying to get him playing time.

But ... if he's suspended again ... onward and upward. Irving is the real story at the moment on the defensive line.

What is going on there are they playing him at a new position or something ?

 

[MSCowboyFan]

Frankly, it's not really a big loss or gain either way.

Amen...much ado about nothing really.

 

[cowboyz]

garrett said he got injured, oblique

January is next week.

 

[Scandri100]

Didn't see anything different from what I saw of his college highlights..He has tremendous pursuit and is nightmare for qbs if he can blockshed his defender.

 

[Zordon]

This is pathetic. How does this appeal process move so fast yet Lane Johnson's takes forever?

 

[revospeed]

There's a big difference between him pass rushing and Ryan Davis. I hope his career isn't ruined because of weed.

 

[Machete]

He should be practicing asking people if they want fries with their drink and assume his role in society.

What's weird is it's been intimidated he has more to him than what will be reported on so he may have a mental illness which is cured by smoking.

Weirdly hostile plus doesn't he have a college degree?
