Thurman will be suspended for the entire 2008 season, the league announced Friday.
ANALYSIS
Sports Illustrated reported this earlier in the week, and the league office made it official on Friday. This marks the third straight season Thurman will miss due to substance abuse policy violations. Even if he is reinstated next year, his odds of finding a team willing to take on someone with this much baggage are very slim.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2007
2006
2005
Released by the Bengals in May 2008.
Thurman had an outstanding rookie season as the starting middle linebacker in 2005, but begins the 2006 season on a 4-game suspension for violating the substance abuse policy. Because the Bengals have a very deep linebacking corps, augmented by promising rookie Ahmad Brooks, Thurman's place at the top of the depth chart is not secure even after he returns. Nevertheless, he should see plenty of field action and when he does he is a playmaker with a nose for the ball.
Starting middle linebacker, expected to record large tackle numbers as a rookie.
