As first reported by the NFL Today on CBS and SportsLine.com, the Vikings wide receiver was fined four game checks for violating the terms of the NFL's Drug and Alcohol Program.
The fine was levied before this season. Moss' four-game fine, which is likely valued in the $120,000 range, was never revealed due to the NFL's strict confidentiality guidelines. But it does shed light on the fact he is already in Phase II of the league's program.
The next positive test would place him in Phase III, which brings an automatic multiple-game ban. It also means if Moss' drug test administered by the league two weeks ago comes back positive, he will be suspended by the league barring an appeal. Any future positive test would also result in an automatic suspension by the NFL.
