Indianapolis Colts quarterback Chad Kelly will be suspended for the first two games of the regular season, assuming he makes the team’s roster, over an incident when he was with his former team.
Kelly was arrested for criminal trespassing while a member of the Denver Broncos, and the NFL weighed in Friday, suspending him for a pair of games for violating the personal conduct policy.

Kelly has apparently looked good in offseason work for the Colts this season after being invited to rookie camp on a tryout basis. This is another hurdle he’ll have to overcome if he wants to make the team, which is no sure thing. The Colts would have known he was facing league discipline, so it remains to be seen whether it matters.
