Dareus should know better. He is extremely fortunate he wasn’t tased or shot.

It's amazing how someone could put a multi-million dollar career on the line for weed, and how often it happens. Whether it should be legal or not (and I believe it should be decriminalized), you've just got to be stupid (or far to regularly high) to be so unwise as to consume or even carry it when it could cost you so much in the NFL.

It's a tough decision that shouldn't be one at all. Break the rules and choose the safer alternative or risk the short and long term side effects. 

It's just what you think is worth the risk. If it's for recreational use, it's a dumb call. If it's pain management...long term health vs. career..... depends on if you need/like the money. 

I'd probably choose the long term health and risk getting banned hoping I'd saved enough to take care of me and the family than risk the bad poo that comes from opioids. No guarantee it would be short term usage.
