With the Cowboys and suspensions, it's always something. Either the league is upholding suspensions, like they did with DeMarcus Lawrence's four-game ban, or they are instituting new ones, as they did with Rolando McClain's 10-gamer announced Thursday.
The NFL announced the suspension of Cowboys linebacker Rolando McClain for violating the league's substance abuse policy. Given this is the former 2010 first-round pick's second violation, the NFL upped the punishment to 10 games suspended without pay.
According to our man inside Valley Ranch, Fish, the club knew about McClain's impending suspension as far back as two weeks ago.
