Detroit News - Charles Rogers has been out of work and out of sight since the Lions released him as one of their final cuts Sept. 2.

Rogers still is without a new team, but he spoke publicly for the first time in a taped interview scheduled to appear tonight on the NFL Network's "Total Access" show.

Rogers admitted in the interview that his four-game suspension by the NFL last season was for using marijuana and said he needs a fresh start. Excerpts of the interview were made available by e-mail by the NFL Network.
