The NFL has suspended Jacksonville Jaguars defensive end Dante Fowler Jr. for one game without pay for violating the NFL's personal conduct policy.
While the league did not specify the reason fo the suspension, Fowler was arrested in 2017 in St. Petersburg and pleaded no contest to three misdemeanor charges of battery, criminal mischief and petit theft in March regarding the incident. The 23-year-old was sentenced to a year of probation, 75 hours of community service, and $2,575 in fines.
Fowler will miss the Jaguars season opener against the New York Giants on Sept. 9th but will be eligible to return to active status for Week 2 against the Patriots.
