Martavis Bryant could be facing suspension

According to Michael Gehlken of the Las Vegas Review-Journal, the Raiders fear a suspension is looming for recently-acquired wide receiver Martavis Bryant. Multiple team officials declined to comment but if Bryant violated the league's substance-abuse policy, he could be looking at a suspension that would last a year, or even longer. In addition to a failed sample, missing a scheduled drug test would also count against Bryant, who previously sat out the entire 2016 season for multiple violations. (Las Vegas Review-Journal )

Fantasy Impact:

The Raiders acquired Bryant in April for a third-round pick and were counting on the speedster to take over as their deep-threat. A second year-long suspension would not only negate Bryant's 2018 fantasy value but could make any teams hesitant to sign him in the future.
