Pryor Could Appeal Suspension After Draft

Oct 16, 2014 11:18 PM

Former Ohio State quarterback Terrelle Pryor could appeal the five-game suspension levied against him by the NFL should he be chosen in next week's supplemental draft. Pryor was part of a list distributed by the league of players who are eligible for the draft, but the NFL decided that he won't be allowed to practice for the team that selects him until Week 6. He gave up his final season with the Buckeyes following an investigation into the team's memorabilia-for-cash scandal, which ultimately landed the school on probation and cost coach Jim Tressel his job.

According to a league source, the NFL has informed its 32 teams that this summer's supplemental draft will be held August 17. No names of eligible players were included as part of the notice. Furthermore, teams were not notified as to when the draft order will be determined. The supplemental draft typically occurs on or around July 15, approximately 10 days prior to the start of training camps. This year, however, the date was pushed back due to the lockout. Former Ohio State quarterback Terrelle Pryor and Georgia running back Caleb King are thought likely to be among those included.
