According to league communications, Snowden is eligible to participate in all preseason activities, including games; the suspension will take effect once teams finalize their 53-man rosters for the regular season. The NFL did not publicly disclose a specific reason for the suspension, though Snowden has previously encountered legal trouble. In 2024, he was arrested on a DUI charge after authorities found him unresponsive in the driver’s seat of a running vehicle that had nearly toppled off a four-foot retaining wall. His blood alcohol content at the time was more than twice the state’s legal limit. Snowden later accepted a plea deal that reduced the charge to reckless driving.
The suspension highlights the league’s continued enforcement of personal conduct policies for players. Snowden’s status will be closely watched as the Cowboys prepare for the season, with his availability limited for the first three games.
