Former Bills RB Lionel Gates supsended 1 year by NFL

[The Answer]

Wow! The hits keep coming.

And what is it with all of these Buffalo RB's - both former and present can't seem to keep their nose clean. Apparently when they aren't busy making babys with women they are beating them up. Class acts all the way.

"According to the reports, former Tennessee Titans linebacker Rob Reynolds, former Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Lionel Gates and former Kansas City Chiefs (http://www.profootballtalk.com/2008/06/12/nfl-gives-three-players-one-year-suspensions/#) offensive lineman Chris Terry were all suspended for a year. All were free agents not under contract to any team."

"Gates was charged last year with battery on a pregnant woman (http://sports.aol.com/fanhouse/2007/03/30/bucs-lionel-gates-charged-with-battery-on-pregnant-woman/). He played one game for the Bucs in 2007. It is not known the specific reason for his suspension."

It's the lines fault. The RB's have taken too many shots to the head in the backfield

Gates and Henry are not with us anymore. Why make a big deal of this? Oh, and OJ is not around anymore, either.

I had big hopes for him coming out of college. I still think he has the tools to be an Earnest Graham type of runner.
