HOUSTON (AP) – Houston Texans left tackle Duane Brown has rejoined the team after serving a four-game suspension for violating the NFL’s policy on banned substances.
Brown, Houston’s first-round draft pick in 2008, said he “unknowingly took a supplement tainted with a banned substance.”
The Texans (4-2) have a bye this week. Coach Gary Kubiak expects Brown to start Houston’s next game, at Indianapolis on Nov. 1. Rashad Butler started at left tackle in Brown’s absence.
Brown is the second Texan to serve a four-game suspension this season for violating the league’s policy on performance-enhancing substances. Linebacker Brian Cushing sat out the first four games.
