Blount gets one-game suspension Le'veon Bell likely to get two-game suspension By: Mike Krueger | Apr 7 2015, 6:37 pm
New England Patriots running back LeGarrette Blount has been suspended without pay for the 2015 regular-season opener, an NFL spokesman said Tuesday. Blount's suspension is for a violation of the NFL's substance abuse policy. (ESPN)
FFToday's Take:We knew Blount and former teammate Le'Veon Bell would both face suspensions after they were arrested last August for marijuana possession. Bell is likely to get a two-game suspension for his involvement in the matter. Both running backs are expected to be the lead runner for their respective teams in 2015 with Bell being a first round pick in most fantasy drafts, despite the looming suspension.
