The NFL has banned Rolando McClain indefinitely, a source tells ESPN.com’s Field Yates (Twitter link). McClain was conditionally reinstated in September and quickly released by the Cowboys, making him a free agent. This latest setback may kick him out of football for good. 
McClain, a talented former first-round pick of the Raiders, has battled off-the-field demons for years. The Cowboys gambled on him after the Raiders gave up on him and, for a period, that gamble paid off. After years away from the game, the Cowboys decided that he was not worth the trouble and we didn’t hear much about him during the 2019 season.
In 2014, the Cowboys acquired McClain via trade and used him in 13 games. He finished that season with 81 tackles, one sack, and one forced fumble. After that, he was hit with his first – but not last – NFL suspension. In 2015, he was limited to just eleven games, though he still tallied 80 tackles and a pair of sacks.
After signing another one-year deal with the Cowboys during the 2016 offseason, McClain was handed a ten-game suspension for violating the league’s substance abuse policy. He then failed another drug test midway through the season, and the NFL slapped him with an indefinite suspension. After his third ban in two years, McClain was cuffed on a 2017 arrest for firearm and drug charges.
Dummy
‘McClain, a talented former first-round pick of the Raiders, has battled off-the-field demons for years.’…poor, poor, poor. Mr. spoiled from HS, College, and NFL, he has ‘demons’. More excuses please.
God forbid you have to ever live a day in any else’s shoes.
Like a guy who enlisted, then did crap work for 20+ years?
Psychological demons come in all forms and affect all tax brackets tiny boy
I’m the ‘tiny boy’ who wasn’t spoiled rotten from 17 till 27 or there about? His demons never mopped a kitchen floor at 2am.
JJB0811- Thank you for your service. I really appreciate it.
And we know this how?
The mopping part, not the salute to service JJB
This is a site for football players, not old people full of regret.
Players only?
Are you a football player? Ok.
Here come all the thug/bad things can’t happen to rich people comments
Huh
It’s ironic that you would think that then assume people would post that. You’re the problem, dude. Take a good look at yourself in the mirror.
Well they did so….I don’t agree with them, idk why I’m the problem lol. Tired of arguing with those people
Can anyone fill me in about “this latest setback”? It doesn’t say what it was anywhere in the article.
Read the last paragraph…gives reasons there
Don’t know whether he has true mental health issues or if he’s just an imbecile, but now he can do like the rest of us…. seek help, get a job and join regular society. Doesn’t look like the NFL will put up with his behavior any longer.
Pretty bad when the NFL has enough…
