Fualaau suspended
Turner Gill announced this week that Nicky Fualaau is suspended indefinitely from all team activities due to a violation of team rules. As is often the case, Gill did not give any further information. Fualaau has been arrested twice in the past 18 months, most recently in April on a public intoxication charge. There’s no indication that the suspension has anything to do with his prior arrests.
