Randy Gregory files lawsuit against NFL and Denver Broncos for penalties imposed on him for using marijuana
The NFL no longer suspends players for marijuana use, but fines can still be imposed. Former Broncos player Randy Gregory is suing the league and his former team for over $500,000 in fines after testing positive for THC, which he claims he needs to treat anxiety and PTSD. Gregory requested an accommodation to use synthetic cannabis, but the NFL and the Broncos denied his request citing federal regulations. Despite the fines, Gregory is expected to play and fulfill his job responsibilities. The lawsuit questions whether the Broncos had a duty to accommodate his disabilities and whether the case should be resolved under the Collective Bargaining Agreement.
