Detroit Lions defensive end Armonty Bryant has been suspended for the second time this season.
The Lions announced Tuesday that Bryant is suspended for the team's next three games for a violation of the NFL's substance abuse policy. The suspension, the Lions said, is related to an incident in 2015.
Bryant was arrested on Dec. 25, 2015, and pleaded guilty in July to a charge of attempted drug possession. When he was arrested, he was charged with felony drug possession because Adderall and oxycodone were found in the vehicle driven by his former teammate De'Ante Saunders.
He had already been suspended the first four games of the 2016 season for violating the league policy on performance-enhancing substances.
He was with the Cleveland Browns then and was waived when he was eligible to come off the suspended list. The Lions claimed him off waivers, and he became a productive member of the team's defensive line rotation. Bryant has five tackles and three sacks in the four games he has been with the Lions.

Martavis was suspended a full season for failing tests or not showing up -- whichever you want to believe. This guy was already suspended four games, gets three additional and was ******* ARRESTED. Martavis was never arrested.
Protect that hypocritical shield, Rog.
