Falcons linebacker returns from four-game suspension

By
FLOWERY BRANCH, GEORGIA - Atlanta Falcons linebacker Keith Newman returned to the team Monday after a four-game suspension for violating the NFL&#39;s policy on anabolic steroids and related substances. <br> <br> He could start Sunday against the undefeated Minnesota Vikings, since starters Sam Rogers and Will Overstreet likely won&#39;t play. <br> <br> ``Sundays were the toughest time, because the guys were out there playing and I couldn&#39;t be a part of it because I made a mistake that was my own fault,&#39;&#39; Newman said. <br> <br> Newman, a former North Carolina standout, played his first four seasons in Buffalo. Former Bills coach Wade Phillips, now in his second year as Atlanta&#39;s defensive coordinator, selected Newman in the fourth round of 1999 draft.
