Arizona Cardinals linebacker Markus Bailey was suspended six games without pay for violating the performance-enhancing substances policy, the NFL announced on Tuesday.
A member of the Cardinals’ practice squad, Bailey, 27, has appeared in one game this season, a 17-15 home win over the Los Angeles Chargers on Oct. 21. He played 73 percent (16) of the special teams snaps and none on defense.
The Cincinnati Bengals selected Bailey in the seventh round of the 2020 NFL Draft out of Purdue. He played in 60 games (four starts) for the Bengals and had 73 tackles, 0.5 sacks, two tackles for loss and four passes defended.
Arizona re-signed offensive lineman Charlie Heck, who had been released from the active roster, to the practice squad to fill Bailey’s spot on Tuesday. Starting right tackle Jonah Williams (knee) is expected to be activated from injured reserve by Wednesday, his deadline for returning to the active roster to play this season.
