Browns' Alvin Bailey suspended 2 games without pay by NFL for earier OVI

BEREA, Ohio -- Browns guard Alvin Bailey is just now paying the price for his OVI arrest in September.

Bailey, 25, was suspended without pay for two games by the NFL Wednesday under its substance abuse policy.

He'll sit out Sunday's game against the Bills and the home game against San Diego on Christmas Eve. He'll be eligible to return to the active roster on Christmas Day and might be available for the season finale New Year's Day in Pittsburgh.

Bailey will lose two game checks, which amounts to $117,647.
He's the second Browns player to be suspended in less than a week.
