Rob Jackson: Facing 4 Game Suspension Banned Substance

Is he FACING suspension or HAS BEEN suspended? I just came across this
Rob Jackson Suspended for First Four Games - HTTR4LIFE.com (http://httr4life.com/rob-jackson-suspended/)

@MikeJonesWaPo: I'm told Jackson's suspension is related to an unprescribed pain medication.

@Rich_TandlerCSN: NFL is confirming that Jackson has been suspended for first 4 games of 2013. Means appeal has been denied.

For the love of god, what the hell is it with this team.....

On the flip side, I'd rather know about it now, than the day before the season starts like T. Jackson.

Still anther crappy blow.

I mean he's a decent player and all but not like losing Rak or Ryan IMO. Still sucks though

I guess the explains why we got him back on a cheap one year deal.

Exactly

Now we just have to hope and pray that Rak stays healthy.

Of course he is.. Geez, we can't stay out of the news about substance suspensions. WTF is going on with our team and medical staff not either educating or providing what these guys need?

The HOW is there are over the counter things guys can pick up and, unless players have every banned substance committed to memory, they could most certainly take something without knowing an ingredient in it is banned.

Bro, these guys have a list of and know what's what. They have dietitians, trainers, and staff going over this shit. If you can commit an NFL playbook to memory, you damn sure can remember a "handful" of banned substances that shouldn't be ingested or going into your body.

I'm sure the NFL would not levy fines and suspensions unless this information was widely disseminated.

One caveat to last post. If the players are completely ignorant, we should have seen staff turnover a long time ago.
