Steelers' Bryant to coach high school during suspension

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Martavis Bryant might be suspended for the 2016 season for multiple violations of the NFL's substance abuse policy, but that doesn't mean he'll be completely without football.

Bryant will spend the year training and acting as a volunteer coach with a high school football team in Henderson, Nev., his agent, Thomas Santanello, told ESPN's Jeremy Fowler.

"He's as focused as I've seen him in a while," Santanello said. "He's keeping very busy. He enjoys working with kids."

Bryant, arguably one of the league's most talented young wideouts, will coach the receivers, as well helping out at local hospitals at least once a week.

The 24-year-old had 50 catches for 765 yards and six touchdowns last season, and appeared set to break out further in 2016 before being handed the season-long suspension.

He will be able to apply for reinstatement in January, and Steelers teammate Markus Wheaton believes he's learned from his mistakes.

"He's not traveling as much. He's with the right people. He's stationary," Wheaton said. "I think he'll be fine."
