Vikings cornerback Holton Hill has been suspended, once again. This time around, it’s a four-game ban for violating the NFL’s policy and program on substances of abuse, as ESPN.com’s Adam Schefter tweets.
Hill, 22, made the Vikings as an undrafted free agent out of Texas and wound up appearing in all 16 games for the Vikings last year, including three starts. He finished out with 36 tackles in total and made his first career interception in the Vikings’ October romp over the Jets.
This year, he was slated for a significant role in the secondary, but a pair of four-game bans will keep him sidelined until the midway point of the season. In April, the Vikings learned that they would be without Hill for a quarter of the season thanks to a PED policy violation.
The team will not be releasing a statement, per Chris Tomasson of the St. Paul Pioneer Press (via Twitter).
It’s bad when Links has to put again in the headline
Has this ever happened? I don’t remember a player ever getting two different suspensions in one season.
It’s happened a decent amount. Even this particular PED/recreational drug 1-2
Obviously Tyreek and Holton have a bet going to see who can screw up the most.
I know who’s winning that bet.
Soon to follow Roc Thomas ?
