Reports: Free-agent WR Sanders banned 10 games
The Jacksonville Jaguars receiving corps is hardly stacked, with names like Allen Robinson, Allen Hurns and Marqise Lee -- all second-year players -- sitting atop the depth charts. So when the club last month released third-year wideout Ace Sanders, even with his struggles last season, it did seem a bit puzzling to some.
That move makes a lot more sense now.
According to multiple reports Monday, the NFL suspended the free-agent receiver for the first 10 games of the upcoming season for violating the league’s substance-abuse policy.
