Redskins pass rusher is facing a four game suspension for PED violation
Just when the Redskins think they are moving in the right direction a bump in the road throws off their steering. Trent Murphy the teams pass rusher is facing a four game suspension to start the 2017 NFL league year for performance-enhancing substances according to the Washington Post.
A second-round draft pick out of Stanford in 2014, Murphy went from a starter to a backup but thrived as a situational pass rusher in 2016, recording nine sacks and three forced fumbles.
Those 9 sacks will be missed dearly if he cannot win his appeal.
