NFL suspended Steelers RB Le'Veon Bell three games for violating the league's substance abuse policy.
Bell will be appealing the ruling in an effort to have the suspension shortened. He probably doesn't have a case, as the NFL's new policy states first-time offense DUIs are met with a two-game ban and the extra game then stems from Bell's marijuana charge. So re-draft owners selecting Bell have to realize they'll be without fantasy's best running back for four of 13 regular-season weeks, including the Steelers' bye.
