ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. -- Having spent the past four months showing hes capable of keeping the effects of Crohns disease in check, Bills offensive tackle Seantrel Henderson faces yet another hurdle in attempting to resume his career.Henderson is appealing the NFLs four-game suspension for violating the leagues substance abuse policy after testing positive for marijuana, a person with direct knowledge of the situation confirmed to The Associated Press on Wednesday. The person spoke on the condition of anonymity because the suspension is being appealed and the NFL has not announced its ruling.The person said Hendersons appeal is based on him using marijuana for medicinal purposes to relieve the effects of Crohns disease. Henderson was diagnosed with the inflammatory bowel disease late last year, and has since had two operations on his intestines. The first operation occurred in January, when doctors removed a section of diseased tissue. In April, he had surgery to have his intestine reattached.Several studies have found marijuana can be an effective treatment for people diagnosed with Crohns disease.In New York, the states medical marijuana program specifically lists patients diagnosed with inflammatory bowel disease as being potentially eligible to obtain medical marijuana.ESPN.com first reported Henderson was facing a suspension.NFL spokesman Brian McCarthy said the league has no comment.Coach Rex Ryan would only refer to questions regarding Henderson as a league disciplinary issue, and directed questions to the NFL.Ryan said the team and league provides its players several programs in dealing with substance abuse issues.Guys have to be accountable and understand that its not tolerated, Ryan added. If its against the rules, its against the rules.The Bills open the season at Baltimore on Sunday.Henderson practiced with the second-stringers on Wednesday, and the team did not make him available to the media.Henderson only resumed practicing a day earlier after missing last week for what Ryan called a medical reason. The absence came after Henderson made his preseason debut by playing 41 of 77 snaps in a 21-16 loss at Washington on Aug. 26.On Tuesday, Henderson said hes feeling normal and everything checked out fine.He has been required to alter his diet because of the disease, which affects about 1.4 million Americans.I definitely appreciate everything that comes with being able to play because it could be gone that fast, Henderson said, snapping his fingers. One day Im in surgery, the next day the doctors saying I might not be able to play no more.Henderson has been a two-year starter at right tackle since being selected by Buffalo in the seventh round of the 2014 draft. His stock in the draft plummeted after Henderson openly acknowledged he had a history of marijuana use. He tested positive for the drug at the NFL combine in 2014 and he said positive tests led to him being suspended several times at the University of Miami.The news of Hendersons possible suspension caught his teammates by surprise.Really? I didnt know that, running back LeSean McCoy said. He was out there practicing. Oh, wow.Guard Richie Incognito was informed of the news while coming off the field after practice.Hes battled back. Hes had to come back from a lot of adversity, Incognito said. I know hes been working hard. I know hes been making sacrifices.The possible suspension is but the latest NFL disciplinary action the Bills have had to deal with this offseason.Last month, starting defensive tackle Marcell Dareus said he was checking into a rehab facility after being suspended for the first four games for violating the leagues substance abuse policy for a second straight year.Backup running back Karlos Williams faced the same suspension before he was cut three weeks ago. The Bills last week released linebacker Manny Lawson, who was being investigated by the NFL on whether he violated the leagues player personal conduct policy.Game notes DBs Colt Anderson (foot) and Kevon Seymour (hamstring) missed their second straight day of practice. ... TE Gerald Christian and DT Deandre Coleman were signed to the practice squad. ... S Damian Parms was released from the practice squad.---AP NFL website: http://www.pro32.ap.org and http://www.twitter.com/AP-NFL Cheap David Ross Jersey .com) - The Edmonton Oilers and Vancouver Canucks both take aim at their first wins of the season on Saturday, as the Canucks open their home slate at Rogers Arena. Cheap Anthony Rizzo Jersey . -- There were so many positives from the Orlando Magics first victory of the season that it was hard for coach Jacque Vaughn to stop praising his players. http://www.cheapcubsjerseysauthentic.com/?tag=cheap-billy-williams-jersey . -- Jacksonville wide receiver Cecil Shorts will likely be a game-time decision whether hell play Sunday in the Jaguars home game against the San Diego Chargers. Cheap Ian Happ Jersey . Paul Pierce couldnt believe he missed at the end. Young scored a season-high 26 points to spark a huge effort from the leagues most productive bench, and Los Angeles beat the Brooklyn Nets 99-94 on Wednesday night after blowing a 27-point lead. Cheap Ben Zobrist Jersey . The 20-year-old Pelicans big man glanced up and smiled widely at the well-wishers -- a fitting end to a day he wont soon forget. Davis responded to his selection earlier in the day as a Western Conference All-Star with 26 points and 10 rebounds, and the New Orleans Pelicans overcame a 10-point fourth-quarter deficit to defeat the Minnesota Timberwolves 98-91 on Friday night. CHAMPAIGN, Ill. -- With the two quarterbacks in front of him on the depth chart down with injuries, Jeff George Jr. has spent much of his redshirt sophomore season at Illinois on mop-up duty, manning the controls for a struggling offense.But on Dads Day at Memorial Stadium Saturday, the son of longtime NFL quarterback and Illinois legend Jeff George and the Illini defense pulled off a comeback that no doubt made the elder Georges day.George Jr. threw a touchdown pass with 1:25 left to take the lead, and with 19 seconds left Illinois defense came up with a fourth-down stop at its own 15 to pull out a 31-27 win.The victory was Illinois (3-6, 2-4 Big Ten) first over the Spartans since 2006, and ended a two-game losing streak in which Illinois coach Lovie Smith said he forgot how the team celebrates a win.We had forgotten what its like. They had to take me through the routine of singing the `Alma Mater, he said. Theres no excitement like a winning locker room, just genuine emotion.Across the stadium from the jubilant Illinois locker room, the Spartans struggled to explain how this one got away.The Spartans (2-7, 0-6) have lost seven straight, are off to their worst Big Ten start ever and are assured of a losing season. They dominated the game on paper, outgaining Illinois 490-304. Eight times Michigan State moved the ball to the Illinois 36-yard line or further, but turned those possessions into just two touchdowns and four field goals. Michigan States 10 penalties for 89 yards hurt.Very disappointing, Spartan coach Mark Dantonio said several times in his postgame news conference, shaking his head as he searched for an explanation. You kick four field goals, that sounds good. (But) it means theres missed opportunities in the red zone.George was just 13-29 for 140 yards, but he had two touchdown passes. The second touchdown was the 16-yard strike to Sam Mays that sealed the win.Obviously I feel like I made some mistakes, George said. The whole point of the game is to weather the storm and keep grinding.Michigan State had a shot late, driving the ball to the Illinois 15. But on fourth down with 19 seconds left in the game, Illinois linebacker Hardy Nickerson and defensive end Carroll Phillips stuffed quarterback Damion Terrys draw for a 1-yard loss.Terry came into the game in the fourth when Tyler OConnor left with an injury.THE TAKEAWAYMichigan State: OConnor and Terry proved Saturday that the Spartans arent lost at quarterback. With Brian Lewerke out for the seasonn, OConnor was steady.dddddddddddd He kept plays alive with his feet on a key third-quarter drive that ended with a touchdown and tied the game at 17-17. And when Terry came off the bench, he was cool under pressure.Illinois: Illinois came into the season talking up its defense, then spent eight weeks struggling to stop the run and, at times, avoid penalties and other mistakes that cost the Illini games. On Saturday, the Illini defense looked as good as initially promised. Playing with short fields and against an offense that has shown it can move the ball, defense kept the Illini in the game Saturday until the offense woke up.LONG-DISTANCE FOSTERKendrick Fosters day was almost lost in the late-game heroics, but Illinois junior running back was the spark that got the Illini offense going. He had 17 carries for 146 yards and two touchdowns, the second a 64-yarder. He has three scores of 56 yards or more this season, all of that after almost leaving the program last November.BOWLINGIts been a while since the Spartans finished a season with a losing record (2006, 4-8) or no bowl trip to look forward to (2009, a 6-7 season that ended at the Alamo Bowl).Six wins and a bowl remain possible for Illinois, but theres no margin for error. The Illini will have to win the rest of their games -- at Wisconsin, at home against Iowa and at Northwestern.INJURY REPORTMichigan State defensive end Malik McDowell left the game with an apparent leg injury in the third quarter. Details about the injury were not available. OConnor was injured in a pileup after running for a first down. He stayed seated on the sideline as Spartan staff talked to him for a long period. Dantonio did not have details about the injury but said he did not believe his fifth-year quarterback suffered a concussion.Illinois starting quarterback Wes Lunt for the second straight week dressed for the game but did not play because of the back injury he suffered Oct. 8 against Purdue. Second-stringer Chayce Crouch is out for the season.UP NEXTMichigan State: The Spartans host Rutgers Saturday. With Ohio State and Penn State left after that, the game is Michigan States best shot to get a third win this season.Illinois: The Illini head to Madison to face the No. 8 Badgers on Saturday.---More AP college football coverage: collegefootball.ap.orgFollow David Mercer on Twitter: (at)davidmercerAP Wholesale Jerseys 2020 Cheap NFL Jerseys Wholesale Wholesale NFL Camo Jerseys Wholesale NFL T-shirts Cheap NFL Jerseys Throwback Youth NFL Jerseys Wholesale Jerseys From China ' ' '
