NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — Tennessee Titans left tackle Taylor Lewan has officially been suspended for the first four games of the 2019 season for violating the league's policy against performing-enhancing substances.

In late July, Lewan posted an emotion video saying he received a letter from the NFL about the suspension, adding that he never took any illegal supplements knowingly.

“Taylor Lewan of the Tennessee Titans has been suspended without pay for the first four games of the 2019 regular season for violating the NFL policy on performance-enhancing substances," a statement from the NFL reads. "Lewan is eligible to participate in all preseason practices and games. He will be allowed to return to the Titans’ active roster on Monday, Sept. 30, following the team’s Week 4 game at Atlanta.”

Lewan will miss game against Cleveland, Atlanta, as well as in-division opponents Jacksonville and Indianapolis.

He'll be eligible to play on October 6th against Buffalo.
