Martavis Bryant, the Steelers’ talented but troubled wide receiver, is facing a full-season NFL suspension in 2016 for again violating the league’s substance abuse policy, two sources confirmed to DKPittsburghSports.com this morning and a third this afternoon.
If the suspension goes through, it would be a shocking, seismic blow to a contending team that’s set a seventh Super Bowl as its goal for next season.

“Per team policy, we’ll have no comment until there’s an announcement from the NFL,” Steelers spokesman Burt Lauten said this afternoon.

The NFL rarely announces suspensions or fines.

Tom Santanello, Bryant’s agent, confirmed the suspension, but declined to comment.

Bryant, 24, was suspended by the NFL for four games for multiple violations involving marijuana usage. He underwent three weeks of counseling in Houston, rejoined the Steelers in midseason, apologized to his teammates in the locker room in what by all accounts was an emotional session and returned to action.

Bryant could appeal this suspension, but the league policy calls for a full season as the next level for a second suspension.

In 11 games this past season, Bryant had 50 catches for 576 yards and six touchdowns.

Much more to come.

Unfucking believable.

The standard is the standard. Sammie Coates, step right up!

Yah, they've been crashing a lot lately cause of traffic. I posted the entire article though.
 
Wow what a ******* bummer. Oh well next man up Coates
 
I guess we can add WR to the draft needs


so ******* pissed off...........
 
God damnit. This is a huge blow to chances at #7

If this stands, I just say we cut him and draft a replacement. Thoughts?

yeah I think you cut him for being a ******* tool

hurt the team twice with that selfish bullshit

DAMNIT!!! I'm not gonna lie, the first thing I thought of when we resigned DHB was that they got wind of something maybe coming down with him. Now add WR to draft list. Hopefully other WR's besides Brown come through big time. And more balls for Green. Record breaking offense derailed before it gets on the track
 
And you guys thought I was stupid for posting the question "who is booted out of the league first, Randy Gregory or Martavius Bryant?"


So.... I'm going Bryant
 
What a idiot. He's going to look back 5 year's from now and realize all the money he could've made in the NFL. Well guess he gets to smoke all the weed he wants now sitting on the couch..
