FRISCO, Texas (AP) _ Dallas defensive end Randy Gregory has been suspended for
at least a year for another violation of the NFL’s substance-abuse policy.
It’s the third time this season Gregory has been suspended. The first was a
four-game ban, followed by 10 games on top of that. The suspension announced
Thursday makes him ineligible for the playoffs, which start Jan. 15 for Dallas,
the top seed in the NFC.
The suspension is for one calendar year, meaning Gregory could be eligible for
the playoffs without another violation if the Cowboys make it again next season.
Gregory played the final two games of his second regular season, recording the
first sack of his career in the finale against Philadelphia.
The 24-year-old former Nebraska standout slid to the second round of the 2015
draft over off-field concerns that included a positive test for marijuana at the
NFL combine
