NFL Dolphins' Jordan caught again, suspended for year Comment By Miami Herald MailTribune.com By Miami Herald Posted Apr. 28, 2015 at 7:54 PM By Miami Herald Posted Apr. 28, 2015 at 7:54 PM » Social News MIAMI — Dion Jordan will miss the entire 2015 season after he violated the NFL’s drug policy for the third time in two years, cementing the former third overall pick out of Oregon as one of the biggest draft busts in Dolphins history. “We were disappointed to learn about Dion Jordan’s most recent suspension for violating the NFL’s Policy and Program for Substances of Abuse,” the team said in a written statement. “A player’s health and well-being are of the utmost importance to us. We have made every effort to support Dion, both on and off the field and we will continue to do so to the extent allowable under NFL guidelines.” The Dolphins have known about the looming suspension, which will be unpaid, for some time. During a regular drug test following his 2014 suspension, Jordan provided a diluted sample — a sign he tried to hide whatever was in his system. The latest mishap for Jordan, who served a six-game suspension after two failed tests in 2014, calls into question whether the underachieving defensive end will ever suit up again for the Dolphins. Jordan has just three sacks in 26 career games. Miami packaged the 12th and 42nd overall pick in 2013 to trade up for Jordan, who was never a great fit in the team’s system. He was said to be unhappy with both his role on the team and perceptions that he was a massive disappointment. Jordan believed his talents were best-suited at linebacker. The coaching staff disagreed, wanting him to again line up at defensive end this season. Instead, he’ll play nowhere. Jordan will not appeal the suspension, a source told the Miami Herald.
