Tampa Bay reserve tight end Jerramy Stevens was suspended without pay for one game Tuesday for violating the NFL’s substance abuse policy. He will miss Sunday’s game against Atlanta and was also fined an additional game check.

Stevens, who signed with the Buccaneers in April after being released by Seattle, was convicted in September of driving under the influence of alcohol in Scottsdale, Ariz.

The charge stemmed from an arrest while the sixth-year pro was a member of the Seahawks.

“When we signed Jerramy this spring, we knew there was a possibility that he could face some type of disciplinary action from the NFL for his prior actions,” Bucs general manager Bruce Allen said in a statement released by the team. “Since he has been with the Buccaneers, Jerramy has been a great teammate and productive player for our team.”

The 28-year-old Stevens has 10 receptions for 86 yards and one touchdown.
