Packer Letroy Guion Suspended 3 Games for Off-Season Arrest

Guion signed a one-year deal worth up to $2.75 million in March but is expected to make neary $500,000 less with the loss of three game checks and a roster bonus for each game.

The Green Bay Packers could be without defensive tackle Letroy Guion for the first three games of the regular season.

The league does not officially announce suspensions until the appeal process has played out, according to the report.

Guion was arrested during the off-season for possession of marijuana and a gun. If Guion’s suspension is not reduced, he will lose almost a half-million dollars. As Demovsky speculated on Twitter, Guion stands a decent chance of cutting his suspension through appeal. Guion is still fighting to recover $190,028.81 in cash and his 2015 Dodge Ram truck that police in Starke, Florida, seized during his arrest.

The Packers defense is predicated on having a strong defensive line and if Guion’s suspension is upheld the Packers will be missing two of their starting defensive lineman for the beginning of the season.
