Floyd was officially suspended by the league for the first 4 weeks of the 2017 season. As mentioned 2-3 weeks ago, this is the result his representation expected.

Good news! Was hoping for less, but feared more. It's about what most of us thought. Be back week 5 against the Bears.

Yes, he won't count vs the 53 man roster until he comes off...some maybe a guy like Coley grabs the 6th spot in the interim...

@"RS Express" said: Better than I expected, I thought Goodell would be angry at Floyd practically skating on the positive test and the seemingly ridiculous tea defense. 

33-71 targets with Tom Brady throwing?  Dude must have been blowing a .21 on the field last year...


The team seemingly believed his defense as he did not get cut as Zimmer said he would and I think the court did also. If they would not have he would have gotten a lot more than one day and finish his house arrest.  All things considered I think I'll just mark it up to one of those freaky things that happen.  We should remember 500 + clean tests before this incident and nothing else since.  That's got to count for something.

I have a weird feeling Fruechte may make the roster in Floyd's absence...

Has Fruechte been on the PS the last one or two years?

PS for 2 seasons, but he was on the active roster late in the season when Treadwell was hurt.

Which Minnesota Sports "journalist" had a source lie to him and say 8 games, feels like that "Journalist" just threw it against the wall in hopes it would stick.

I didn't know whether to like it or laugh. Fuck it, I laughed. If he has an alcohol problem though, he needs to get a handle on it.

So the activation makes him not eligible, correct?

from what I understand he is still eligible since he doesnt have a full accrued season on the active roster,   and for a player to be eligible for a 3rd year on the PS, the team must keep a full 53 man roster the whole year.
