It has come to my attention from the League Office that Torrance Marshall has violated the NFL Substance Abuse Policy and that he will be suspended for the Packers' first four regular-season games of 2003.
Some time after our June mini-camp Torrance sought out the necessary steps in getting the professional help and counseling he needs. Hopefully this will only enhance his ability to put his priorities back in his life.
I am obviously disappointed that Torrance has put himself in this situation, but I am pleased that he has taken the necessary action to get himself well.
His teammates and coaches will support him as much as they possibly can through this process and hopefully will aid in his full recovery.
