Minnesota Vikings cornerback Jabari Price was suspended without pay for the first two games of the regular season for violating the NFL substances of abuse policy.

Price, 22, pleaded guilty in April to careless driving following his December arrest for DWI.

Price, the Vikings’ seventh-round pick in 2014, will be eligible to return to the Vikings’ active roster on Monday, Sept. 21. He will miss games against the San Francisco 49ers and Detroit Lions.

Price is eligible to participate in all offseason and preseason practices and games.

“I sincerely apologize to my family, my teammates, the Vikings organization and Vikings fans for the mistake I made last winter,” Price said Friday in a statement released by the team. “I can assure you that it will never happen again. I look forward to returning to helping my team on the field in Week 3.”

Price appeared in 14 games last season, mostly on special teams.
