TJ Ward on challenging suspension: ‘My last name’s not Brady’

Denver Broncos safety T.J. Ward has been suspended for the first game of the regular season for an alleged incident that took place at a bar last year. Ward appealed the suspension and had a hearing with the league earlier this offseason, but the penalty was upheld.

According to the arrest warrant, which was issued in May 2014, Ward was accused of throwing a glass mug at a bartender inside a Denver strip club. Ward ended up only having to pay a fine. You can read more details from the incident here.

On Thursday, Ward was asked if he would try to take his appeal a step further in an attempt to play Week 1.
