Denver Broncos linebacker Von Miller will serve a six-game suspension under the NFL’s substance-abuse policy, a violation the linebacker said did not result from a positive test.
The league wanted a longer penalty for the third-year linebacker, but the sides agreed to less than half the season.
Miller’s suspension will begin Aug. 30, the day after Denver’s final preseason game. He is eligible to return for Denver’s seventh game, Oct. 20 at the Indianapolis Colts. The suspension will cost Miller more than $800,000 of the nearly $2.3 million he’s scheduled to make this season.
