Dwayne Bowe will play in the Week 11 game against the Broncos despite getting arrested on speeding and marijuana charges Sunday night.
Under the new CBA, the Chiefs couldn't discipline Bowe even if they wanted to. The NFL could, but they won't review the case until after it runs its course in court. Ultimately, we'd expect little more than a slap on the wrist for Bowe. He's something of a knucklehead, but he's never been arrested before and his 2009 suspension was for violating the league performance-enhancing drug policy -- not the substance-abuse policy. Therefore, he's not a repeat offender.

ESPN's Ed Werder doesn't expect the Chiefs to discipline Dwayne Bowe, who was arrested late Sunday night on charges of speeding and possession of a controlled substance, until the case is resolved.
Bowe will be in the lineup for Sunday night's AFC West showdown between the 9-0 Chiefs and 8-1 Broncos. Bowe is coming off his best game of the season in which he registered season-highs in catches (7) and yards (67). That tells you all you really need to know about Bowe's fantasy prospects. He's a WR3/4.

Dwayne Bowe was suspended in 2009 for violating the league's policy on performance-enhancing drugs.
Bowe's Sunday night arrest on marijuana charges will fall under the league's substance-abuse policy. These are two separate issues, meaning he will not be considered a repeat offender unless there have been previous unreported transgressions. He has no prior arrests that we're aware of. Bowe has made himself a distraction ahead of the biggest game of the year for his 9-0 team, but we don't expect the NFL to step in. Any discipline will be up to coach Andy Reid and the Chiefs.

Dwayne Bowe was arrested late Sunday night on charges of speeding and possession of a controlled substance.
Bowe was pulled over while allegedly going 48 mph in a 35 mph zone. The police officer detected a strong odor of marijuana from inside the car and subsequently found a bag with Bowe's wallet and two containers of what is believed to be marijuana. At that point, Bowe was arrested. It's huge distraction ahead of Sunday night's showdown between the 9-0 Chiefs and the 8-1 Broncos, but the Chiefs should be able to put any discipline on the back burner until the case is settled in court.

Dwayne Bowe caught a season-high seven passes for 67 yards in the Chiefs' Week 9 win over the Bills.
Bowe had two drops, including one in the red zone, but ultimately this was his most promising performance to date. He came through with several clutch catches for first downs, and operated as Alex Smith's safety valve on in-breaking routes. We're certainly not ready to say Bowe is "back," but he's at least producing a bit again. The Chiefs have a Week 10 bye.

Dwayne Bowe (groin) was downgraded to "limited" on Thursday.
Mid-week downgrades are rarely good news, but it's unlikely to be an issue for Bowe after he played through the injury in last Sunday's win. Bowe is fighting with Greg Jennings to be the league's highest paid low-end WR3.

Dwayne Bowe (groin) is practicing in full this week.
Bowe tweaked his groin last week and missed Friday's practice. He suited for Sunday's game against the Browns but caught just one pass for seven yards. Bowe is going to play this week against Buffalo but remains a low-end WR3.

Dwayne Bowe (groin) is active for Week 8 against the Browns, as expected.
Bowe will play through a groin injury suffered in practice this week. He's just a low-end WR4 and will likely draw plenty of Joe Haden in coverage. Inactive for the Chiefs are QB Tyler Bray, TE Kevin Brock, FS Bradley McDougald, LB Dezman Moses, OL Eric Kush, RG Rishaw Johnson, and DT Jaye Howard.

Dwayne Bowe (questionable, groin) will play in Week 8 against the Browns.
Bowe suffered a mid-week groin injury, but it's not serious enough to keep him out of Sunday's game. He'll be nothing more than a low-end WR4 in a tough matchup with Joe Haden. Bowe has just 13 catches for 147 yards over his last three games.
