Ravens second-year running back Kenneth Dixon has been suspended four games without pay for violating the league’s policy on performance enhancing drugs, the NFL announced Thursday afternoon.
Dixon, 23, was a fourth-round draft pick last season out of Louisiana Tech. He ran for 382 yards and two touchdowns on 88 carries in his rookie campaign.
“I want to apologize to the Ravens organization, my coaches, teammates and fans,” Dixon said in a statement. “Being an NFL player is a privilege that comes with many responsibilities, including knowing the contents of any and all foods and supplements put in your body.
