Reserve linebacker banned after breaching drugs policy
Minnesota Vikings linebacker Erin Henderson has been suspended by the NFL for four games.
Henderson has violated the league's performance-enhancing banned substances policy.
The reserve linebacker will miss the Vikings final three regular-season games and their first playoff match.
The 23-year-old younger brother of fellow linebacker E.J Henderson signed for Minnesota as an undrafted free agent in 2008 and has played primarily on special terms.
It is the second blow for the Henderson family after EJ was ruled out indefinitely after breaking his left leg on December 6.
