FOXBOROUGH, Mass. -- New England Patriots starting defensive end Rob Ninkovich?will serve a four-game suspension to open the 2016 regular season after a positive test for a banned substance.The NFL said in a statement that Ninkovich is eligible to return from his suspension, which is without pay, on Monday, Oct. 3.Ninkovich told ESPN on Friday that he is devastated and shocked, and said he would never knowingly take an illegal substance.Few things are more important to me than my name and reputation. This might call that into question for some, which has me heartbroken, Ninkovich said. I dont want to cut any corners. I want to do things the right way, with high integrity, and thats what I have always wanted to stand for.Ninkovich, 32, has played in 116 consecutive games (including playoffs) for the Patriots since signing with the team as a free agent on Aug. 2, 2009.Any supplement Ive ever used was bought at a store. I was unaware something I bought had a substance in it that would give me a positive test because it wasnt listed [as an ingredient], Ninkovich told ESPN.One thing I have learned is that if a supplement is not NSF certified, there are no regulations that ensure that what is on the label is 100 percent accurate. That is a hard lesson for me to learn at this stage in my career, but I take responsibility for it. Its a mistake I made and it hurts that I wont be there for my teammates.A team captain in 2015, Ninkovich tore his triceps during a training camp practice with the New Orleans Saints on Aug. 9 and was in jeopardy of missing the start of the season because of the injury.He is valued for his pass-rush ability (47 career sacks, including playoffs) and toughness to set the edge against the run.
