Arizona GM Keim suspended
The Arizona Cardinals suspended general manager Steve Keim for five weeks and fined him $200,000 after he pleaded guilty to extreme DUI following a Fourth of July arrest in a Phoenix suburb.
A Chandler police report shows Keim had a blood-alcohol level of 0.19. That’s more than twice Arizona’s legal limit of 0.08 for drivers.
Keim entered his plea Tuesday.
It wasn’t immediately clear when Keim would be sentenced or if he was facing a jail term.
According to the arrest report, Keim told police officers he had only two beers and ate pizza two hours before he got pulled over.
But officers said they smelled alcohol on Keim’s breath and he had slurred speech.
Gregory reinstated: Dallas Cowboys defensive end Randy Gregory, who was suspended all of last season for multiple violations of the National Football League’s substance-abuse policy, was reinstated.
Gregory can join the Cowboys at training camp in California next week and will be eligible for games as long as he continues to meet the terms of his reinstatement, the league said. The team reports to Oxnard on July 24, two days before its first practice.
The NFL said Gregory was immediately eligible for meetings, conditioning work and “similar activities” and would be cleared for practices and games once “arrangements have been confirmed regarding Gregory’s clinical resources in Dallas.”
Gregory, 25, last played in the 2016 regular-season finale. He was suspended before the playoff loss to Green Bay.
