Steelers WR Martavis Bryant plans to enter rehab for his depression and drug issues. “We’re all stunned, me included,” Bryant's agent said. “We clearly miscalculated the issue. His isn’t a party issue. It’s a coping issue and a depression issue, and he’s got to take care of it.” Bryant is facing a full-season ban for multiple missed drug tests. He's appealing the ban, but it isn't expected to be overturned. Like Cleveland's Josh Gordon, Bryant will be able to apply for reinstatement in 1 year. If he can get back on track off the field, he could return in 2017 at 25 years old.
