    New England Patriots running back LeGarrette Blount has been suspended without pay for the first game of the 2015 regular season for violating the NFL Policy and Program for Substances of Abuse.

    Blount is eligible to participate in all offseason and preseason practices and games.

    The punishment stems from Blount's arrest last August, when he was a member of the Steelers. Blount was arrested while sharing a car with then-Steelers teammate Le'Veon Bell. Police found marijuana in the car.

    Yet no decision on Le'Veon Bell? Lol. The commissioners "love" for the Patriots is starting to get annoying...

    Watch Bell get 4 games. That would prove your point.

    I actually think he will. Blount lied and denied it. Bell was driving and admitted to it. He'll get 4. The real question is do they let the Steelers know the punishment before or after the draft?
