When the Green Bay Packers open the 2017 regular season against the Seahawks, they won't have receiver Geronimo Allison. The league has announced that Allison has been suspended for one game under the substance-abuse policy. The suspension undoubtedly traces to the resolution of marijuana possession charges following an arrest in September 2016. Allison appeared in...

If the Packers are keeping Guion, I'm wondering when they're going to get around to determining his Hawaii DUI suspension, and how long it might be. It would suck to make room for him on the 53, just to put him on the suspension list later in the season.

Yeah it might help that way, with sneaking a WR to the PS. Of course, it might make them stand out more too... could go either way.

Guion already is suspended to start the season. Before his DUI. Allison won't make it to the PS.

Correct me if I'm wrong,
I don't think any suspended player counts against the 53 man roster until the suspension is up.
When over then the team must make a rostet move or release the player.

I looked this up after Guion got his dui and yes suspended players do not count towards the 53. We don't owe Guion or Allison any money either until the suspension is over so I'm not seeing any necessity in making a decision on them until then. If injuries strike at WR/DL they're nice insurance policies to have.

You are both correct on Guion, but my concern was that his four game suspension would be up, and then the Packers are going to have to decide if they want him on the 53 man roster or not... without knowing what his punishment for the Hawaii DUI will be.

After Guion's suspension is up... it would suck to release another player, making room for Guion... just for Guion to get another 4+ game suspension during the season.

TheKanataThrilla (27-Aug) : Looks like we signed Clayton Tune as QB3
