The NFL suspended six players for violating the leagues steroid policy. While the players were not caught with steroids, they were caught for using a diuretic, which masks steroids. The NFL gave out a uniform suspension of 4 games per player, without pay.

The New Orleans Saints lost 3 players, including Deuce McAllister, Charles Grant, and Will Smith.

The Minnesota Vikings lost the heart of their defensive line, in having both Kevin Williams and Pat Williams suspended.

Shockingly, Bryan Pittman, long snapper on the Houston Texans, was also caught. Why a long snapper would do steroids, I do not know. Next thing you know, the towel boy will also be shooting up.
