Marshall’s Three Game Suspension Official

Brandon Marshall will miss at least the first two games of the regular season, AFC West contests against the Raiders and Chargers.  Commissioner Roger Goodell suspended Marshall for three games yesterday, ruling that he violated the NFL’s personal-conduct policy.  Goodell may reduce the penalty by one game if Marshall complies with the league’s conditions, including counseling.  Marshall can still practice and play in the preseason, and does have the right to appeal.  Marshall’s off-field troubles include three arrests since he joined the Broncos in 2006.  He goes on trial next month over a drunk-driving charge from last October.
