NFL Suspends Free Agent Safety Tashaun Gipson for Six Games

The NFL has taken disciplinary action against free agent safety Tashaun Gipson, suspending him for six games due to a reported violation of the league’s performance-enhancing drug policy. This news was first reported by ESPN’s Adam Schefter.

Gipson, a one-time Pro Bowler, spent the last two seasons with the San Francisco 49ers. During his time with the team, he started 16 games, recording 60 tackles, one sack, and one interception. He also started all three playoff games, including the 49ers’ Super Bowl LVIII loss to the Kansas City Chiefs.

Gipson’s NFL career spans over a decade, with previous stints with the Cleveland Browns, Jacksonville Jaguars, Houston Texans, and Chicago Bears. This suspension will undoubtedly be a setback for the veteran safety as he looks to continue his career in the league.
