GREEN BAY, Wis. -- Their infractions were different but the end result the same: Demetri Goodson and Mike Pennel will miss the first four games of the regular season because of positive drug tests.
Goodson’s suspension fell under the performance-enhancing drug policy, while Pennel got nailed for a substance-abuse violation. Although neither one would reveal exactly what they took to trigger the positive tests, both claimed they have learned valuable -- but costly -- lessons.
