Breaking News: Larry Johnson suspended one game…
…and it isn’t for stiff-arming that woman in the nightclub. This is a team suspension.
The Kansas City Chiefs on Thursday suspended running back Larry Johnson one game for violating a team rule.
Chiefs coach Herm Edwards refused to disclose what rule the two-time Pro Bowler broke. Edwards did say the violation had nothing to do with the charge of simple assault filed against Johnson earlier this week.
KansasCity.com says that Kolby Smith, not Jamaal Charles, will get the start, but Charles will no doubt see increased action.
Neither guy is a good play against a great Tennessee defense, but if you have room you could stash one or both away in case LJ sees further punishment from the league for the assault.
One of my fantasy teams looks real strong right now with this news. After picking up Smith, my two running backs this week are him and Ricky Williams.
BRUTAL.
I guess it’s a good thing John is the one handing out fantasy advice on this site and not you, Anthony! Who’s your quarterback, Jeff George?
Anthony – I can draft your teams for you next season, if you like.
No thanks. Knowing you, you’d probably charge me.
Absolutely!
Though, for you, I’d only take a percentage of the winnings.
