Talked to Fritz today.
"Chris Joyce is not going to be able to play. He's ineligible. They do testing, the NCAA, with supplements. and he had an over-the-counter supplement he tested positive for. That's why it's so important for guys to check with us before they take anything."
Joyce is practicing with the scout team at receiver, where his speed and ability should help the defense prepare better. He is out for 12 months, so he will miss the first three games nex year. I was under the impression that since he played in four games this year, he would miss the first four games next year, but it's a one-year calendar issue rather than a game issue.
"He can help us all over the place," Fritz said. "Unfortunately it's a 365-day suspension, so he'll be out the first three games next year."
