Free agent Jared Veldheer has been hit with a six-game ban (Twitter link via NFL.com’s Ian Rapoport). The reason for the suspension is not immediately clear, but it will likely hurt the tackle’s chances of finding a deal this summer. 
Veldheer, a 2010 third-round pick out of Hillsdale, has put together a 12-year career, appearing in 121 career regular season games. He joined the Colts in late December, and he ended up playing 100-percent of his team’s offensive snaps in Week 17 and the Wild Card Round. After that, he hooked on with the Packers, making him the first player in NFL history to play at least one postseason game for two different teams in the same year. It was all thanks the loophole provided by last season’s COVID-19 practice-squad rules.
It’s worth noting that Veldheer will turn 34 in June, so it’s not clear whether he’s planning on playing this year.
This guy flip flops in and out of retirement.
He retired again today. Lol.
So, in order to come back for another playoff run, he’ll have to unretire in late November so Gute can sign him to the covid list. I mean, active roster…
Josh Gordon isn’t around so Goodell has to use those surplus suspensions on someone.
