Rams cornerback Fakhir Brown, who was suspended four games in 2007 for a violation of the substance abuse policy, has won an appeal as to another potential violation, which likely would have resulted in a one-year suspension.

According to the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, Brown prevailed in the appeal and is working out with the team after missing four weeks of the offseason program, apparently due to the pending suspension.

Brown, his agent, and the team declined comment.  Due to the confidential nature of the substance abuse program, the league will surely have nothing to say, either.
