Rookie defensive tackle Terry Beckner is suspended for the next four games for violating the NFL policy on performance-enhancing drugs, the league announced today.

No word on whether the Bucs will bring back Da’Quan Bowers, Ryan Sims, Albert Haynesworth or Chris “Swaggy” Baker to fill the void.

Fantasy Midseason: Chris Godwin Is A “God” Helping Fantasy Owners “Win,” Plus Jameis Fantasy Versus Reality

October 20th, 2019
Remember in the wonderful movie “Groundhog Day,” when Bill Murray was sitting in the diner shoving slices of cake in his mouth while lighting cigarettes trying to convince Andie MacDowell that he was immortal?
