The National Football League has suspended Pittsburgh Steelers DT Daniel Ekuale for violating the Performance-Enhancing Substances policy.

Ekuale, who's on injured reserve after tearing his ACL against the Green Bay Packers in Week 8, will be suspended for the next five games without pay for his violation.

Although on IR, Ekuale's suspension without pay will end when the Steelers host the Baltimore Ravens in Week 18.
