Larry Johnson banned from practice/team activities

The Kansas City Chiefs just released a statement saying the team and the NFL have told Larry Johnson to stay away from practice and team activities.

In the statement, the Chiefs say a decision on Johnson’s status with the team will be made at the conclusion of the investigation.

Here’s the full statement:

The Kansas City Chiefs and the National Football League are continuing

to investigate the alleged comments made by Larry Johnson. Until that

review is complete, the Chiefs have instructed Larry to refrain from

practicing with the Chiefs or participating in other team activities. A

decision regarding Larry’s status will be made once the investigation

has concluded.

The Chiefs and the NFL are investigating homophobic slurs reportedly made by Johnson on Twitter and later in a locker room to reporters, the TV station reports. Once it concludes, then that’ll be Johnson’s judgment day.
