Sad for Sammy who I always liked but glad he will not be in srable when Bills play at Miami.

I hope he gets his act together. Other than this violation, he's been a solid contributor and a workhorse that does his job. Very good on special teams, I think he was one of the ST captains last year.

He was captain of ST here, also - if I remember correctly.

I was kicking FGs with him one day in the field house, back when he was a Bill.

As I remember, he was fascinated with placekicking, and used to practice it as a hobby.

He nailed a 35 yarder off a tee that day, in his Timberland work boots.

Nice guy.

Here's some more detail from a blog from a Miami area writer:
Attorney David Cornwell confirmed last night that Sammy Morris will serve a four-game suspension for violating the NFL's steriods policy because, of all things, the running back took Sudafed. The over-the-counter medicine contains ephedrine and psuedo-ephedrine which are banned by the NFL steroid policy.

Maybe he just has sinus trouble.

It is the rainy season down there, afterall.
