Brandon Marshall avoids suspension
In a surprising decision, the NFL has cleared Brandon Marshall of any possible discipline for his March 1 disorderly conduct arrest. Marshall, who was suspended to start last season for violating the league's conduct policy, was arrested a fourth time since 2006 on March 1. A police officer reportedly saw Marshall and his fiancee Michi Nogami-Campbell engaged in a fight and arrested them both. Those charges were dropped the next day, a fact that likely factored into the league's decision not to further penalize the Broncos receiver.
While the news is undoubtedly welcome for the Broncos after an offseason of upheaval, Marshall still has some hurdles to clear before seeing the field again. He is recovering from hip surgery in Orlando and has a court case still pending from a previous arrest.
The Broncos probably still isn't ready to give Marshall the money he wants, but at least he'll now have 16 games to show the new coaching staff what he can do.
