Eli Apple is having an awful day. Earlier today, we brought you the news of teammate Landon Collins calling Apple a ‘cancer’ and claiming he needs to grow up. Oh, and then there was Eli’s homeless brother blasting their mother for Eli’s declining production on the field.

All bad things come in threes. It has been reported by Ian Rapoport that Eli Apple’s second season in the NFL is over.

A statement released by the Giants today claims that the organization suspended Eli because of conduct “detrimental” to the team.

“We have suspended Eli for a pattern of behavior that is conduct detrimental to the team,” general manager Kevin Abrams said.

The suspension came two hours after Apple offered up an interesting excuse to abort a media session about his thoughts on Collins’ comments.

“I gotta take a shit,” he said, in front of both male and female reporters. He laughed while walking away.

NFL Network also reported that the 22-year-old had refused to take the field with the scout team during Wednesday’s practice.

Hey, the good news is that Landon Collins apologized for calling his teammate a terminal disease.

That Eli is…….one….bad….Apple.

K, signing out.

The anti-drug people gave him a $50 savings bond for his brave contribution to crime-fighting, and upon the bond’s maturity 10 years later, he used it to buy his very first bag of marijuana.
