WSVN in Miami, citing "a television station in Denver", is reporting that Dolphins running back Ricky Williams has failed another drug test.

If true, Williams faces a one year suspension from the NFL. The Denver station is describing their source as "rock solid".

The Dolphins have no comment at this time.

That's actually kind of a shame after he did OK last year. Oh well . . .

I wonder if his salary counts against the cap now?

Now it's being confirmed by Jason Cole of the Miami Herald. Check out the news post in the NFL Headlines section:

Say it ain't so... my God.

Ricky, PUT DOWN THE JOINT!

 

[scout]

Wow, kind of too bad for him, does he get to keep the money?
So much for the Dolphins plans of a possible trade with the Vikes or anyone else for Ricky.

 

[Pats Fanatic]

That is just unbelievable.

Curious. Didn't Ricky come back due to his quitting caused the Phins to demand repayment of the contract? I wonder what happens now? If he's not forced to repay the contract, could he have failed on purpose?

 

[JR4]

....... could he have failed on purpose?

Maybe.
Maybe he knew he was about to be traded to a team he didn't want to go to,
so he smoked his way out of it.

Now there is one man ... who truly doesn't care about the money.

Have a happy life, Ricky!

Ricky, Ricky, Ricky

Can't say no to the "ganja", mon! :rocker:

The NFL and society are very clear about their rules - only taxable drugs like alcohol, toboacco and those manufactured by drug companies are morally and legally acceptable.

Anything you can grow yourself without having the government tax it is strictly a no-no.

Shame on you Ricky - you were warned.

 

[Patriot Missile]

Atleast Ronnie Brown becomes a legitimate back for those Fantasy Owners out there.

Yeah thats really sad I hate to hear this some people are
given so many chances and just don't care.

re:

Sucks for Ricky. Sucks for Saban because he can't trade Ricky and get value anymore. But... this ends up being good for us.

I thought Saban was smart to bring Ricky back, showcase him, and (I assume) try to trade him for some picks or players in the off-season. Now that Ricky screwed it all up, it will take just a little longer for Saban to build a strong team.

Ricky's value has also plummeted, which may make him a nice cheap pickup if a team wants him.

He didn't care about the money until he had to pay it back.

Except that he'll be suspended for at least a year.

And because of that, he goes down as a martyr in my book!

RICKY WILLIAMS - LEGEND

Dolphins Draft

Does this mean the Dolphins will be looking to pick up another back in the draft? Of course mock drafts are meaningless, but this just screwed a lot of them up!

I can't believe all the statements of sympathy I'm hearing. Get a grip Pats fans. This is a division rival we're talking about. Ricky Williams flunking another drug test? Are you kidding me? That's great news!
