FOXBOROUGH, Mass. (AP) — New England Patriots running back LeGarrette Blount has been suspended for the first game next season for violating the NFL’s substance abuse policy.

The league announced the suspension without pay Tuesday without saying when the violation occurred.

Blount was arrested last August for possession of marijuana while with Pittsburgh. Steelers running back Le’Veon Bell was arrested for marijuana possession and DUI in the same traffic stop.
