Mark Sanchez suspended four games for violating NFL drug policy

Mark Sanchez’s NFL career appears to be on life support.

The NFL announced Friday that Sanchez has been suspended for the first four games of the 2018 season after violating the league’s PED policy.

Free agent Mark Sanchez has been suspended without pay for the first four games of the 2018 regular season for violating the NFL policy on performance-enhancing substances.

Sanchez is eligible to participate in all offseason and preseason practices and games.

Sanchez, a free agent, hasn’t played in a regular season game since 2016 and hasn’t started one since 2015. Though he received token interest as a backup this offseason, a drug suspension probably wipes out most, if not all, of his market for the time being. He turns 32 in November, and while nothing is impossible, it’s tough to see him coming back from this and landing on an NFL roster anytime soon.
