DAVIE, Fla. (AP) Dion Jordan's 2015 season is over before it started, and his tumultuous time with the Miami Dolphins may be finished as well.
The Dolphins and the NFL announced Tuesday that Jordan has been suspended for the 2015 season for violating the NFL Policy and Program for Substances of Abuse.
The defensive end was not at any of the team's voluntary workouts last week, raising plenty of eyebrows about his status and his future with the Dolphins.
''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 Dolphins said in a 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.''
Jordan's agent, Doug Hendrickson, did not respond to a request for comment.
