Dallas Cowboys defensive end Randy Gregory reportedly failed another drug test recently, and the latest positive test is said to have been triggered by marijuana yet again.
TMZ reports that Gregory was tested at the end of last week and informed on Tuesday that he tested posted for marijuana. This is supposedly the sixth drug test Gregory has failed dating back to when he was caught smoking weed at the NFL Combine before the 2015 NFL Draft.
A source told TMZ that Gregory has had a “problem quitting” using marijuana and that he is concerned the Cowboys could move on from him.
He should be.
Gregory was originally suspended for the first four games of the season, but that number was bumped up to 14 games when he failed a drug test while serving the ban. As Ian Rapoport noted, another failed test for Gregory would likely trigger a one-year suspension, meaning he could be ineligible for all of the 2017 season.
The Cowboys took a chance drafting Gregory in the second round in 2015, and it has not paid off. The former Nebraska star’s attempt to get clean over the summer apparently failed, and it is starting to look like he may never play in Dallas.
