It looks like the NFL is suspending defensive tackle Alan Branch for four games.

Apparently he tested positive for weed, so he is suspended for violating the NFL's drug policy.

According to reports, Branch will appeal the suspension.

You might remember that Branch was suspended by the Patriots for violating team rules this summer.

We'll see how this latest violation sits with Coach Belichick.

GO PATS!!
