Late last season, Ravens return man David Reed had a lot going on: He was named special teams player of the week just days after he was busted for having marijuana in his house.

Now Reed will have nothing at all going on during the first week of this season: The NFL has suspended him without pay for the season opener against the Steelers.

Reed, who will also be fined an additional game check for violating the NFL substance-abuse policy, will begin his suspension tomorrow and have to be away from the team until after the Steelers game.
