TAMPA - Another problem Buccaneers cornerback is suspended, but we knew this one was coming.  Eric Wright begins his four-game suspension immediately.

Not that comes as any surprise.

Bucs Cornerback Eric Wright has been suspended by the NFL for four-games for testing positive for the use of Adderall.

Wright apparently lost his appeal of the suspension and will begin serving the four games this week.

He will be eligible to come back the final game of the season against Atlanta.
