Broncos running back might get suspension


Things just got worse a few weeks ago for the Denver Broncos when reports came out that running back Travis Henry had tested positive for marijuana.

Henry has filed a federal lawsuit against the National Football League regarding the drug test results. He claims that his experts did not witness the tests.

If the reports are true, Henry could face a year long suspension and miss the remainder of the 2007 season.

The Broncos will be able to take back money from the 12 million dollars guarenteed on Henry's contract.

Please get that money back Pat Bowlen and spend it on a defensive lineman that can help stop the run.

More than likely Henry will appeal if he is suspended, which will delay his return even longer. If his suspension does not start until mid-season in 2007, he will not return to the Broncos until midway through the 2008 campaign.

Henry is one of the few bright spots for the Broncos so far this season. The team is 2-3 but Henry has produced solid numbers.
