    The Chargers will play the final three games of the season without defensive lineman Tenny Palepoi.

    The team announced on Monday that Palepoi has been suspended four games by the league for violating the league’s policy on performance enhancing substances.

    “While disappointed to hear the news today about Tenny, we respect and support the League’s decision. We are confident that he will learn from this and understand what is expected of him in the future,” the team said in a statement.

    Palepoi has played almost half the snaps on defense for the Chargers this year as a reserve on the defensive line. He has 13 tackles after having 16 in 16 appearances during his rookie season. He will be suspended for the first week of next season as well.

    makes no sense suspending players who take performance enhancing drugs when clearly there was no enhancement in the player's performance

          Damn. A Utah-man and I know for a fact he is a really good dude. Must have felt he had to cheat to overcome that injury last season. Bummer...

            Tenny Palepoi tested positive for Adderall use, source close to Chargers lineman said. Loses four game checks.
            Adderal? That's not even worth the risk of suspension. Go for HGH if you want to improve.
            Now, if you excuse me, I have some Charger memories to suppress.

              I never look at someone who takes steroids or even an addict as a bad person. Confused, yep, lost, yep. For so many of these people it's a disease.

                The adderal is to help them concentrate in the film study and meetings. With the way they get banged around the head in this League, you would think they would allow it to help.

                  I believe that adderal is legal for off-season, but is considered a PED in-season.

                    That seems like a fucked up rule to me.
