Travis Henry Tests Positive For Marijuana

FOX 31 in Denver reports that Broncos running back Travis Henry has tested positive for marijuana.
The development subjects Henry to a one-year banishment from the NFL, given that he was suspended for four games within the past two years for violating the league's substance abuse policy.
Henry has the right to appeal the positive test. If the outcome is upheld, he'll be gone for at least a year.
He signed a five-year, $22 million contract with the Broncos, including $12 million in guaranteed money, after the Titans released him prior to the due date of a large roster bonus. The substance abuse policy now controls the extent to which Henry will have to pay signing bonus money back to the team.

He's fighting the suspension, and was granted a temporary restraining order against the use of the specimen.

According to the Associated Press, "The report on the newspaper's Web site said Henry claims the league violated its substance abuse policy by not allowing his experts to be present for testing of his urine sample, according to court papers... The league wants the matter transferred to federal court because it involves interpretation of the NFL's collective bargaining agreement, generally covered by federal labor laws."
