I'll be interested to see how Gruden reacts to this - that's the most interesting thing for me.
I'm not sure how the league looks at a player on suspension in regards to the number of players we can keep. Does he count while on suspension?
Now we likely have to keep Porter or Crawford.
If this brain surgeon just cost Redd or one of our WRs a job, I'm going to be pissed.

Doesn't count against the 53 while suspended.

Tell me you're kidding.I don't claim to be an expert on this, but I would like to think that a coach should be able to detect "outward signs" exhibited by one of his players who is smoking pot. You're dealing with a player every day for hours at a time - not just on the field, but in meetings, etc. So wouldn't you think that with all that exposure to the guy, added with the typical, obvious signs that a weed smoker conveys, that it would at least catch a coach's suspicion, what the player might be up to, and Coach could look into it, talk to the guy, etc, before it reaches the point where he's arrested and suspended, etc ?
And not only detect those signs, but be extra alert and on the lookout for that potential to happen, for the reasons stated in the last sentence.
I seriously doubt the CBA would allow such a thing.And to take it a step further, don't teams have their own independent drug-testing, separate from the league, so they can catch a problem before the league does, and apply their own team disciplinary action, which may not be as severe as the league's suspension ?
He won't get suspended. He is in part one of the NFL program now
