Cowboys' La'el Collins Files Lawsuit Against NFL Over 5-Game Suspension

Dallas Cowboys offensive tackle La'el Collins has filed a lawsuit in Texas against the NFL seeking to end his five-game suspension, per Mike Florio of Pro Football Talk.

The lawsuit reportedly seeks a "temporary restraining order, a temporary injunction, and a permanent injunction against ongoing enforcement of the suspension."

Collins was suspended five games for violating the league's policy on substance abuse, though Todd Archer of ESPN reported he did not fail a drug test. ESPN's Adam Schefter later reported Collins allegedly tried to bribe the test collector after multiple missed tests.
