Geez Darren. Really dude?

Comeon man....

Antiquated laws..............

I seem to recall him getting suspended over the offseason for the same thing. Antiquated rules aside, you still have to follow team rules dude.

It's amazing that some pro players function in the real world.

NFL rules not team, semantics I know but the point remains. The NFL is so hypocritical, methamphetamine and opiate usage was and has been rampant for decades in the NFL but as long as it was prescribed it was okay.

It would shock you the percentage of the work force that has used or does use marijuana in their off work hours. I've worked with social drinkers and seen them come in hung over, I'd much rather work with a social marijuana user. Now I don't want either one of them coming to work under the influence but off hours? Personal choice up to and until either becomes abused. I see zero difference in social alcohol or social marijuana usage. More and more states have decriminalize personal possession and usage. Time to eliminate any criminal penalties entirely for adult usage of marijuana.

LOL. The naivete of folk who think that the NFL uses Liberty Baptist to enforce their rules!

To risk a high paying job for recreational drug use just isn't the smartest thing to do. Do it after that job ends.

So true!

Let me add to the above, if marijuana was not illegal the NFL wouldn't give a flip one way or the other. Their level of concern is proportional to amount of negative publicity an issue generates.

Wait. So the NFL doesn't want its employees to engage in illegal activities? I'm appalled. How dare they!

Read what I wrote again, IF marijuana wasn't illegal the NFL wouldn't give 2 hoots about players using it and the ONLY reason they do at all is negative publicity. The couldn't care less about the players, commodities to used and discarded. Business 101 at it's best.

Great news! I'd love to see him and Torrey Smith on opposite sides, that's a decent combo right there. He's gonna be one of the fantasy steals of the year.

That is a huge turnaround from what Chip Kelly said earlier this year! I'm glad that DeAndre has fully recovered and stepped up. Dude is going to be the next Tech great in the NFL.
