NFL allows Martavis Bryant to play until verdict in suspension appeal

With Martavis Bryant's year-long suspension under appeal, the NFL is allowing the Oakland Raiders wide receiver to play until there is a verdict, sources tell ESPN.

Bryant's camp is confident that it has a chance to win the appeal, which is expected to be heard in the next couple of weeks, according to sources.

This is one of the main reasons that the Raiders took Bryant back on a contract that pays him week to week. For now, Bryant's appeal looks like it could buy him a few weeks on the Raiders roster, and possibly even more, depending on how the league rules.
