JJT states that another defensive starter is one failed test away from 4 game suspension

[bsheeern]

Id venture a guess and say Scandrick

"another defensive starter is one failed test away from a four-game suspension"
He's already had one 4 games suspension. Next one would be bigger right?

 

[speedkilz88]

wasn't that overturned? I believe the rules changed and he got re-instated after two games because of the rule change.

Yeah, Scandrick got caught under the PED testing and the rules changed how they treated molly.

I am not sure. Remember his suspension was reduced to 2 games, because "Molly's" classification was changed from a performance enhancing drug to recreational drug. PED's give you immediate suspensions. Recreational drugs are where you get the 4 strikes and 4 game suspension.

Scandrick

my guess

Maybe the nfl needs to change the marijuana policy.

I know I know... If they can't stop then they deserve etc... Get tough on crime... Just say no....

The hypocrisy that they allow much more dangerous narcotics is laughable and becoming outdated fast.

I dont really have an issue with Pot but I have an issue if you cant stop smoking it for millions of $$$$. Whats laughable is how the NFL is OK with these guys taking PED's but not Pot.Yes there's a policy for PED's but the NFL knows all of them are on something and still have to do the token drug test to show that they do "care". Only the guys who screw up the regimen get caught

It might be half the team.

I'm having a hard time actually caring who it might be.

The issue with pot is that it is illegal. And in states it is, it's how they get the pot.
PED's, guess it depends on what it is. And how they got it. Though not all illegal. Or if prescribed.
wonder if there are any players with a pot prescriptions...lol..

Oh crap the Molly incident was number 2 right?

Molly was not treated as substance abuse - it was treated as a performance enhancing drug failure, which is an automatic 4 game suspension.

If I were to wager, I would say that it's Morris Claiborne. Just on the basis of pure stupidity.

 

[Zordon]

Wade Phillips has no control of this team!!!

 

[JohnnyHopkins]

Jeff Heath, which is why they gave him that four year deal.

 

[DandyDon1722]

It might be half the team.

E - it might be half the league.

 

[Kaiser]

Its not Scandrick or Rolondo McClain because both have had 4 game suspensions before, my guess would also be Wilcox or maybe Claiborne.

 

[knightrider94]

Wouldn't you have to have a four game fine before a four game suspension?

 

[erod]

E - it might be half the league.

Yep, and the NBA is probably 98 percent.

 

[dcjules]

Wilcox probably

If it is, let buy the stuff for him!!!

From JJT:

"McClain starts and Gregory should be a key contributor, but both are one moment of weakness or foolish decision away from seriously hurting the team for an extended period. And, according to a team source, another defensive starter is one failed test away from a four-game suspension."

I know these guys are idiots for failing these drug tests, but why do we care if they're smoking pot at this point? Guys who smoke pot generally just mellow out and chill at home, and almost never get into trouble with the law because they've been smoking. On the other hand, there is no penalty for athletes who drink, even though 99% of player run-ins with the law (fights at clubs, fights w girlfriends, DUI, car accidents, etc) are alcohol related. Personally, I prefer my favorite players stay in and smoke a little, it keeps them out of trouble.
