DENVER

 -- 

Fox 31 News has learned that Denver Broncos running back Travis Henry, the team's leading rusher, has tested positive for marijuana use and could be subject to a one-year suspension.

Henry, 28, previously served a four-game suspension from the National Football League for violating the leagues substance abuse policy in September 2005 as a member of the Tennessee Titans.

Henry can appeal the latest violation. However, if the appeal is denied, he will begin serving a one-year suspension immediately.

Henry can file for reinstatement 60 days prior to the end of the suspension.

The Denver Broncos had no official comment, instead, deferring to the NFL.

The Broncos signed Travis Henry in the off-season to a five-year, $22.5 million contract with $12 million in guarantees.

He has ~10 children with ~9 different mommas. No wonder he hits the bong.

That’s actually the sad, if unavoidable likely outcome of this guy’s behavior. I bet his IQ is less than 90.

If bad play is the reason, then every player on the Vikings and Chargers must be lighting up huge Bob Marley-sized spleefs all the time.

“Ha,ha,hey my guys (Patriots) only do steroids and tape opposing sidelines !!!”

Here’s a transcript of the tape:

Jet’s Defensive Captain - OK Coach, what defense should we use against the Patriots?

Jet’s Defensive Coordinator - Heck, I don’t know. Does it matter? We’re going to lose anyway. Do whatever you want, just try to keep the clock running so we can get to Hooter’s before five o’clock.

The Patriots were using them for yucks at team victory parties.

Your right. Mangini’s a little weasle anyway. There’s a number of NFL coaches who have implied he is for “turning” the fraternity. A couple like Dungey love it though !!!

It is fun watching Mangini coming out as the bad guy here. I guess that pretty much confirms that there are all sorts of shenanigans going on.

All I have to do is look at Matt Light’s neck and I know that steroids are alive and well in the NFL.

So is Selvin Young a good pickup in fantasy leagues?

I think it’s time to take pot smoking off the list of stuff that gets you banned from football. I don’t smoke pot butt...

Am I the only one who thinks this is just plain stupid or are all Freepers of the opinion that smoking pot is evil?
