Steelers' Martavis Bryant failed 'multiple' marijuana tests
Pittsburgh Steelers wideout Martavis Bryant's four-game suspension is for "multiple failed marijuana tests," NFL.com's Ian Rapoport reports.
Per Rapsheet, Bryant's appeal is in "the latter stages." Bryant now has all the makings of a boom-or-bust WR3, especially since Markus Wheaton has supposedly looked ready to break out as the Steelers' No. 2 receiver. Bryant's touchdown upside makes him worth a later-round draft pick and stash in re-draft leagues, but it can't be assumed he'll simply pick up where he left off in his impressive rookie campaign.
Bryant is entering his second year in the NFL, and while Markus Wheaton has been listed ahead of him on the depth chart, Bryant's been the better target in fantasy football. He ranked second in the league behind only Kenny Stills in per-target Reception NEP last year, and was expecting a larger role in the Steelers' offense in 2015. Wheaton's stock is up, while Bryant's is obviously down.
