faba Posted July 3, 2014 Share Posted July 3, 2014 Dion Jordan suspended four games for PED violation 0 By Dan Hanzus Around the League Writer Published: July 3, 2014 at 04:14 p.m. Friend(s) Email Your Email Send Email By Dan Hanzus Dion Jordan suspended four games for PED violation RGIII: There are no more 'ulterior motives' in D.C. More Columns > The Miami Dolphins will begin the 2014 season without former first-round pick Dion Jordan. The Dolphins announced Thursday that Jordan has been suspended without pay for the first four games of the regular season for violating the NFL's policy on performance enhancing substances. "We were disappointed to learn about Dion's suspension," Dolphins coach Joe Philbin said in a statement released by the team. "Dion has accepted responsibility for his actions and is committed to improving, both on and off the field, in preparation for the upcoming year." Jordan -- the No. 3 overall pick in the 2013 draft -- also released a statement through the team. "I recently learned from the NFL that I tested positive for stimulants that are banned under the NFL policy," the statement read. "I worked carefully with my advisors and the union to investigate the test results, and I take full responsibility for the test results. "I'm very sorry for the impact of this situation on my teammates, coaches, Stephen Ross, the entire Dolphins organization, fans and my family as well. I will continue to work extremely hard during training camp and preseason. During the suspension, I will stay in top shape and will be ready to contribute upon my return." Jordan is eligible to return to the Dolphins' active roster on Sept. 29 following the team's Week 4 game against the Oakland Raiders.

GREENBEAN Posted July 4, 2014 Share Posted July 4, 2014 See, this is an actual circus of an organization. But no one cares. Chris Johnson making the bold statement that he wants the ball in his hands is a bigger story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larz Posted July 4, 2014 Share Posted July 4, 2014 But no one cares. Chris Johnson making the bold statement that he wants the ball in his hands is a bigger story. actually just said if he is playing well, he expects to stay in the game, and the RB coach said 2 weeks ago they go with the hot hand that can only be newsworthy on the jets oy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
