Antonio Callaway’s troubled career has taken another turn for the worse.

The Cleveland Browns wide receiver was suspended four games for a violation of the NFL’s substance abuse policy. The suspension is reportedly related to a citation he received in 2018 for marijuana possession.

Sources: #Browns WR Antonio Callaway is being suspended 4 games for a violation of the NFL’s substance abuse policy. He had been appealing this ruling. This may party explain why he’s been running with the reserves.

The Browns took a risk on the troubled receiver even after he was found to have smoked marijuana during the NFL Combine in 2018. He caught five touchdowns in his rookie season, but things like this are only going to frustrate Cleveland after they stood by him despite his previous record.
