Vikings Statement From Spielman On Floyd - Guest - 06-27-2017

I think 4 or less even after this. 1 day in and finish house arrest is a huge win.

Regardless of the number of tests failed, this will be Floyd's first suspension as an NFL player; he is still at "stage one" of the intervention program, right? So he and his agent and the NFLPA will scream bloody murder if he is suspended for more than 4 games. The lowest option for a 6 game suspension is: "A suspension without pay of six (6) regular and/or postseason games@VikeMike52 said:

(including the Pro Bowl, if selected) if he was previously suspended
for Stage Two noncompliance" Floyd has not been suspended before.
He won't get more than 4 games. I know, Goodell seems like King Joffrey at times, but I just don't see him going way beyond the NFLPA contract terms.

Wait I thought they didn't release what stage a player was at or has that changed. Used to be you didn't know beyond speculation what stage a player was at in the process.

It won't be less than 4 games and I think there's a chance it could be 6.

But I can't see how he would be at Stage 2 without ever being suspended for games while playing in the NFL. Even if he is somehow secretly at stage 2, he wouldn't get 6 games unless it was a 2nd suspension. I think predicting a half-season ban can only be due to some of us Vikings fans getting a persecution complex..

I think you might have it right @Jor-El

He could be stage two if they take into consideration the college DUI...which has happened previously...
