LeVeon Bell insists hell do everything in his power to make sure his latest run-in with the NFLs substance abuse policy is his last. Vontaze Burfict isnt so sure he can say the same about his reprimands from the leagues disciplinary committee.Either way, two of the NFLs most dynamic players head back to work this week after serving three-game suspensions to start the 2016 season. Bell sat for running afoul of the drug policy for the second time, Burfict as penance for a series of unhinged moments on the field that culminated in his helmet-to-helmet knockout blow of Pittsburgh wide receiver Antonio Brown in last years wild-card round.Their returns should give their teams -- both expected to compete for a playoff spot in the hypercompetitive AFC North and both coming off one-sided losses last Sunday -- a boost as October dawns, the front edge of a wave that will include other bold-faced names (including some dude in New England) that will come off the suspended list next week.How their teams have survived in the absence of such vital parts is a mixed bag.For all of Bells talent, DeAngelo Williams led the NFL in rushing through two weeks before Pittsburghs hot start came to a sudden and decisive halt in Philadelphia. The Bengals, however, have missed Burfict -- the emotional touchstone of a defense that is among the NFLs best when it at its finest.Their comebacks, however, come with a caveat. Any potential missteps going forward would carry far harsher penalties. Bell doesnt think that will be an issue.Im not a perfect person, the 2014 All-Pro said. I never will be. I know there are some things I can get better at.Burfict, meanwhile, doesnt seem to care whether his helter-skelter style of play incurs the wrath of the commissioners office.Why would I change anything? he said earlier this week.Thats just Vontaze being Vontaze. A look at the returns on the horizon and what they could mean going forward.THE PLAYER: LeVeon Bell, RB, PittsburghTHE RETURN: Sunday night vs. Kansas CityTHE IMPACT: You mean besides giving fantasy football owners a headache as they try to decipher how much Bell will be used? Bell was one of the best versatile backs in the league before tearing the MCL in his right knee on a tackle by Burfict last November. The knee is fine (Bell decided against wearing a protective brace) and he begins the final year of the rookie deal he signed in 2013 trying to prove to the Steelers -- and 31 other teams -- that hes matured as a person while remaining as explosive as ever.THE PLAYER: Vontaze Burfict, LB, CincinnatiTHE RETURN: Thursday vs. MiamiTHE IMPACT: The Bengals need more than just Burficts production -- hes perhaps their most dynamic defender when healthy -- they need his energy, too. Cincinnati gave up four touchdown passes to Denver on Sunday and looked downright polite in a loss at Pittsburgh in Week 2. Burficts presence could provide the Bengals with an emotional boost they desperately need. A trendy pick to make a deep playoff run, Cincinnati is a middling 15th in total defense and seems to have lost a bit of its swagger. Burfict should help provided he keeps his cool -- never a guarantee.THE PLAYER: Tom Brady, QB, New EnglandTHE RETURN: Week 5 at ClevelandTHE IMPACT: Try not to muss up all of Jimmy Garoppolos and Jacoby Brissets hard work. Kidding. (But only a little). Bradys 21-month battle with the league over Deflategate will finally end when his four-game suspension expires following this Sundays visit from Buffalo. The Patriots have chugged right along in Bradys absence, though all that success will likely just spur Brady to send a message that New Englands dominance doesnt rest solely on the shoulders of coach Bill Belichick.THE PLAYER: Josh Gordon, WR, ClevelandTHE RETURN: Week 5 vs. New EnglandTHE IMPACT: Massive. Maybe . With Gordon, you never know. He led the NFL in yards receiving in 2013, but that was three years and a handful of suspensions ago. Following a miserable start, the Browns are starting to show signs of life with Terrelle Pryor doing a little bit of everything. Pryor thinks the Browns offense could get ugly (in a good way) if Gordon stays out of trouble. Thats a mighty big `if though.THE PLAYER: Marcell Dareus, DL, BuffaloTHE RETURN: Week 5 at Los AngelesTHE IMPACT: Like Bell, the Bills highest-paid player missed time for a second straight season for finding himself on the wrong side of the NFLs drug policy. Like Bell, Dareus has watched the guys filling in get by pretty well without him. Sacks and turnovers are up in Buffalo, which whipped Arizona last weekend and will face the healthiest Patriots quarterback available (and not suspended) on Sunday. The 331-pound Dareus (his listed weight anyway) may need time to get into playing shape but his presence in the middle could free things up for defensive coordinator Rob Ryan to get creative with how he uses guys on the edge.OTHER GUYS ON THE WAY: Rob Ninkovich, DE New England; Mike Pennel, DL Green Bay; Arthur Jones, DE Indianapolis--AP Sports Writers Joe Kay in Cincinnati, John Wawrow in Buffalo, Kyle Hightower in Boston, Schuyler Dixon in Dallas, Mike Marot in Indianapolis and Genaro Armas in Green Bay, Wisc., contributed to this report.

SAN ANTONIO -- Minnesota Lynx players did not wear T-shirts supporting the Black Lives Matter movement ahead of Tuesdays game in San Antonio after four off-duty police officers walked away from security jobs at a Lynx game over the weekend because of the garb.The shirts worn before Saturdays game in Minneapolis against the Dallas Wings listed the names of two black men fatally shot by police in Minnesota and Louisiana. The shirts also showed the Dallas police shield above the phrase Black Lives Matter. Five officers in Dallas were fatally shot last Thursday by a sniper during a protest over the two slayings.Lynx spokeswoman Ashley Carlson says the players would not be wearing the BLM clothing in San Antonio.The Lynx organization was made aware about the concerns of the off duty Minneapolis police officers, the team said. While our players message mourned the loss of life due to last weeks shootings, we respect the right of those individual officers to express their own beliefs in their own way. ... We continue to urge a constructive discussion about the issues raised by these tragedies.In a statement Tuesday, Minneapolis Police Chief Janee Harteau said while the officers were working security on behalf of the Lynx, she expects all officers to adhere to our core values and to honor their oath of office when wearing a Minneapolis police uniform.Walking off the job and defaulting on their contractual obligation to provide a service to the Lynx does not conform to the expectations held by the public for the uniform these officers wear, Harteau said.Minneapolis Police Federation President Bob Kroll told the Minneapolis Star-Tribune he commends the officers. He says they took their names off a list of officers to work future games.In a post on her Twwitter and Facebook accounts Tuesday, Minneapolis Mayor Betsy Hodges called Krolls comments jackass remarks.ddddddddddddLet me be clear: labor leadership inherently does not speak on behalf of management. Bob Kroll sure as hell doesnt speak for me about the Lynx or about anything else, Hodges wrote.On Sunday, the New York Liberty wore similar black T-shirts addressing the recent shootings.We do need people to stand up and understand and express that black lives are just as important as any other lives in America, and right now thats not being seen, Liberty guard Tanisha Wright said.New Yorks Swin Cash had stronger words.I think its a shame that we keep seeing people that want to make this movement as something thats violent, said Cash, who repeatedly hit the lectern with her fist and whose voice cracked while speaking. Five cops gave their lives up trying to protect a peaceful movement. And in this country, I do believe that you can assemble peacefully and protest against injustice. So until the system transforms, we cannot sit here and act like there is not a problem here in America.Many athletes have expressed frustration and anger over the recent police shootings, including NBA players Damian Lillard and Carmelo Anthony and Brittney Griner of the Phoenix Mercury.LeBron James and other basketball stars made news in 2014 when they wore T-shirts reading I cant breathe to protest the death of Eric Garner at the hands of police in New York City and five members of the St. Louis Rams made the Hands up. Dont Shoot! gesture before a game in reference to the fatal shooting of Michael Brown by police in Ferguson, Missouri.
