Martavis Bryant faces year-long suspension for substance-related relapse

Former Oakland Raiders wide receiver Martavis Bryant is facing a year-long suspension for his latest substance-related relapse, a source told ESPN.

The NFL is reviewing the matter and could issue its ruling as early as this week, according to a source.

With this potentially being Bryant's third suspension in four years, it could mark the end of his NFL career. It would be a challenge for Bryant to return from another suspension, though he will be entitled to counseling from the NFL Players Association.

ESPN reported earlier this month that Bryant violated the league's drug policy at some point during the offseason.
