May 30 is the earliest it could happen.
Arizona Cardinals linebacker Daryl Washington is eligible to be reinstated to the NFL on May 30, one year from the date he was suspended for at least one year for violations to the league's substance abuse policy. Just days away from when he could come back, his status is still unknown.
Fox Sports 910's Mike Jurecki reported Friday "Washington is not aware where he stands right now when it comes to him being reinstated."
If he is reinstated, he is still not likley going to be playing again with the Cardinals right away.
