Buffalo Bills LB Andre Smith suspended 6 games for PED violation

The Buffalo Bills won’t see one of their core special teamers for the first six games of the season - that’s how long linebacker Andre Smith has been suspended for a PED violation, according to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport. Smith didn’t play on defense last season, and only took 47 snaps in 2020, but he was one of the team’s primary contributors in the kicking game, appearing on two-thirds of snaps in the last two seasons.

Smith is in the second year of a two year, $2.4 million contract he signed last offseason. He’ll be paid $1.
