A federal appeals court says the NFL can't suspend Minnesota Vikings Pat Williams and Kevin Williams for violating the league's anti-doping policy.
The decision came Friday, two days before the Viking open the season at Cleveland. The NFL had cleared the two to play Sunday, but the court fight was still pending.
The NFL wanted to suspend the Williamses for four games after they both tested positive for a banned diuretic during training camp in 2008.
