Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Lynch was suspended last month for violating the league’s personal conduct policy after he pleaded guilty in March to a misdemeanor gun charge in Los Angeles. He was sentenced to 80 hours of community service and three years’ probation. Lynch apologized for his actions and anticipated he would be suspended after meeting with NFL commissioner Roger Goodell. Worth noting, players have been successful in appealing their suspensions. Last year, Brandon Marshall had a three-game suspension reduced to one. Stay tuned. It could happen again.
