Seahawks' Brandon Browner banned indefinitely

[Auggie]

RENTON, Wash. -- Seattle Seahawks cornerback Brandon Browner was suspended indefinitely by the NFL on Wednesday for violating the league's substance abuse policy.

Earlier Wednesday, a league source told ESPN NFL Insider Adam Schefter that Browner had his appeal of a one-year suspension denied.

The suspension is the second in two seasons for Browner. He was suspended four games last season for violating the league's policy on performance-enhancing substances. He is the second Seahawks player to be suspended for violating the substance abuse policy this season. Fellow cornerback Walter Thurmond is serving the final week of a four-game suspension.

Browner is the seventh official suspension for a Seattle player for substance-abuse or performance-enhancing drugs violations by the league since 2011. That doesn't include Richard Sherman, whose suspension was overturned on appeal late last season.

1. So, when was Pete Carroll hired?

Pretty obvious to me who's behind this.

2. The Seattle PEDHawks

The NFL needs to do a thorough investigation of that team and pull draft picks if evidence is found about widespread cheating.

Why this is not a bigger story is beyond me.
