Question
With it being 420 Day, it seems appropriate to turn the focus on marijuana. Over the last 10 years, which team has had 15 different players suspended for violating the league’s substance abuse policies – 3 more than any other franchise?
Answer
New York Jets. Two other teams have had more total suspensions (Dallas and Washington) but both had players who were hit multiple times. According to the fine folks at Wikipedia, the Cowboys have had a league-high 18 suspensions over the last 10 years (including one that was overturned) but over half have been by three players – Rolando McClain, Randy Gregory and David Irving. Washington is at 16 suspensions by 12 players. The Jets have 15 suspensions, and they’ve all come from different players. Two teams have had a league-low 3 players suspended in the last 10 years: Miami and Philadelphia.
