Aqib Talib made his return to the football field today, but it may not be for long.

According to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, Talib is staring down an NFL suspension, and it’s likely to be a long one.

Talib suffered a reportedly self-inflicted gunshot wound back in June, and while the investigation is still ongoing, it doesn’t look good for the Broncos’ star corner; Roger Goodell could look to make a statement with his decision.

Without Talib, the Broncos would have to rely on Bradley Roby and Kayvon Webster to pick up the slack, and while they’re both quality defenders, the No Fly Zone just won’t be the same without No. 21.
