Tank suspended for eight games (could be reduced to six)
It's Official!
NEW YORK (AP) -- Tank Johnson of the Chicago Bears was suspended by the NFL for the first eight games of the 2007 regular season for violating the league's new personal conduct policy.
The defensive tackle recently served a two-month jail stint on a probation violation on gun-related charges.
Goodell said Johnson's suspension could be reduced to six games if he has no further involvement with law enforcement and undergoes counseling.
After meeting with Goodell last month upon his release, Johnson said he was ready to accept whatever punishment Goodell handed down and that he wants to become the NFL's "Man of the Year," the player honored for being its best citizen.
