EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. (CBSNewYork/AP) — Giants backup defensive end Owa Odighizuwa has been suspended without pay for the first four games of the regular season for violating the NFL’s policy on performance-enhancing substances.
The league announced the suspension Monday, less than a week before teams have to reduce their rosters to 53 players.
It was questionable whether Odighizuwa would have made the roster. He missed most of the off-season training and hasn’t talked to the media since the team reported to training camp.
Odighizuwa will be eligible to return to the Giants’ active roster on Oct.
