Baltimore Ravens offensive tackle James Hurst was suspended Friday for the first four games of the 2020 NFL season for violating the league's policy against performance-enhancing substances, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport.
The 28-year-old is set to enter his seventh NFL season, all of which have been spent with the Ravens. In 2018, he signed a four-year, $17.5 million extension that will keep him under contract through 2021.
Hurst appeared in all 16 games for the Ravens last season and started the two games that All-Pro left tackle Ronnie Stanley missed.
