Week 17 Outlook
Availability
NFL Network's Ian Rapoport is reporting free agent defensive back T.J. McDonald has been suspended for the first eight games of the 2017 season.
Fantasy Impact
McDonald will serve his eight-game ban to start the 2017 season. His suspension stems from his DUI charge from last May that also included drug charges, per Rapoport. McDonald, who spent the first four years of his career with the Rams, is a free agent and is unlikely to be signed anytime soon due to his lengthy suspension.
Los Angeles Rams DB T.J. McDonald was arrested early Tuesday morning for a suspicion of a D.U.I. charge after allegedly hitting a parked car.
Fantasy Impact
T.J. McDonald will likely face consequences from the NFL if he is convicted of his charges from this incident. McDonald only played in 11 games in 2015 due to a shoulder injury that resulted in the safety spending the latter part of the schedule on injured reserve. He accounted for 63 tackles, one sack, a forced fumble and a pass deflection in those contests.
