Brent will be allowed to return to the Cowboys’ facility starting in Week 7 for team meetings and individual workouts, the NFL said in a news release. Starting with Week 9, he can return to all team activities other than traveling with the team and playing.
"If Brent fully complies with these terms, and following an additional report and recommendation from the league’s substance abuse program advisors, he will considered for full reinstatement to return to play following Week 10," the NFL’s statement said. "Brent may appeal this decision within five days."
Brent also must fully comply with any evaluation, treatment or counseling required by medical or other professionals assigned to him and with the requirements set forth by courts regarding his probation, testing, and monitoring, the NFL said.
Brent’s agent, Peter Schaffer, said they would appeal the decision.
"We are going to invoke our appeal right," Schaffer said in a phone interview with ProFootballTalk.com. "We were truly hoping that the commissioner’s response to Josh’s request for reinstatement would be one that we wouldn’t have to appeal, and that it would be fair and based on precedent. The last thing we thought we’d have to do today would be appeal the decision."
