IFallsRon Posted October 17, 2007 Share Posted October 17, 2007 Green Bay Packers wide receiver Koren Robinson, who was suspended for one year for violating terms of the NFL's substance abuse policy, has been reinstated and can return to practice immediately, ESPN's Chris Mortensen is reporting.Robinson's suspension came in the wake of an incident in August 2006 while he was playing for the Minnesota Vikings.Police said Robinson led them on a car chase at speeds over 100 mph, and his blood-alcohol content was found to be 0.11 percent, above the legal limit of 0.08. The Vikings cut Robinson, and he signed a two-year deal with the Packers in September.However, he played in only four games before he was suspended.In February, Robinson was sentenced to 90 days in jail after pleading down to a charge of fleeing police. Robinson also was sentenced to three months in jail for violating probation on a separate drunken-driving case in Kirkland, Wash., last year.
