Marcell Dareus addresses suspension and contract talks
Defensive tackle Marcell Dareus is an important part to the Bills' success on defense. The interior defensive lineman is one of the key members of the team's defensive line which is regarded as one of the best defensive lines in the league.
Last week, it was reported that Dareus would be missing the Bills' season opener against the Indianpolis Colts as a result of a suspension that stems from being arrested last May for felony possession of a controlled substance and possession of drug paraphernalia. He also was cited for reckless driving last offseason.
Not only was Dareus suspended but he has also been trying to negotiate a new contract with the Bills this offseason.
On Wednesday, the Bills continued their OTAs and Dareus addressed the suspension as well as where he and the team stand with regards to his contract talks for the first time.
