Clarence Hill reports that a new drug policy is “very close” to getting done and the suspension for Cowboys CB Orlando Scandrick will be lifted as soon as a new agreement is in place.
This would be great news for Broncos WR Wes Welker as they both reportedly took Molly laced with amphetamines, which triggered the positive tests.
Browns WR Josh Gordon could receive a reduced sentence or possibly have his suspension thrown out completely.
Mike Florio of Pro Football Talk first reported that this was a possibility last night.
This agreement is expected to give an independent arbitrator the ability to oversee positive tests. However, the issue of whether Roger Goodell or the arbitrator will handle appeals cases reportedly remains a“sticking point.”
Albert Breer reports that talks between the two sides intensified close to 10 days ago and they are treating this Sunday as a “soft deadline.”
We’ll have more updates regarding this situation as the news is available.
