Just when you thought the Pittsburgh Steelers sent the player they had on their roster with a substance abuse problem to the Oakland Raiders, Eli Rogers finds himself suspended for the first week of the 2018 regular season due to violating the league’s substance abuse policy.

We are disappointed that Eli Rogers has been suspended for Week 1 of the regular season as part of the NFL Policy and Program for Substances of Abuse.
