Rolando McClain is being suspended for another year, on top of the 10-game suspension he's currently serving that is scheduled to end Monday, and there are doubts he will get to play again in the NFL after recently missing another drug test, NFL sources told ESPN.
McClain is likely to appeal the latest suspension, according to sources.

Players suspended for a year or longer do not have a high success rate of returning. McClain will be out until at least November 2017 before he's eligible to apply for reinstatement.
McClain was serving a 10-game suspension for testing positive for opiates. Cowboys owner Jerry Jones already has said McClain would not be back with the team when his suspension was scheduled to end Monday.
