La'el Collins attempted to bribe NFL drug-test collector

Dallas Cowboys right tackle La'el Collins was suspended by the NFL after trying to bribe the league's drug-test collector, sources told ESPN.
Players cannot be suspended for positive marijuana tests under the NFL's new collective bargaining agreement, but Collins' issue was multiple missed tests and also trying to bribe the test collector, according to sources.
The NFL initially was preparing to suspend Collins five games for his actions, but the NFL Players Association -- aware of the intended five-game suspension -- helped negotiate a reduction to what would have been a two-game ban.
Collins, however, appealed the suspension, and the appeal was heard by an arbitrator appointed jointly by both the league and the NFLPA. The arbitrator not only rejected Collins' appeal, but ruled that based on the evidence, the suspension should be increased back to the original five games
quote:
Collins believed he had legitimate reasons for missing seven drug tests
quote:
The suspension will cost Collins roughly $2 million and, per the CBA, voids the injury guarantee worth $6.48 million in his 2022 salary.

When La'el was at LSU, they had a rule that for every missed appointment (class, tutoring, workouts, meetings, etc.), you accumulated a certain number of negative points. Once you got to a certain point level, your whole position group had to do early morning conditioning.
La'el would so often skip stuff that the OL would have to do early morning conditioning at least once a month.
But he would just skip that, too.

What is it with LSU players and pot?
We seem to have more potheads than the rest of the SEC combined.
