<i> From Times wire services </i>

Former Cincinnati Bengals running back Stanley Wilson, who was suspended for substance abuse before Super Bowl XXIII, has suffered another relapse and has entered a drug rehabilitation clinic in Phoenix, according to his attorney, Reggie Turner.

Turner also said from Los Angeles on Monday that he is completing a deal with a magazine to publish Wilson’s story of his drug relapse the night before the Super Bowl.

Turner said he took Wilson to the unidentified clinic Thursday. Wilson will be there three months, he said.

“Emotionally, he’s not handling things very well right now,” Turner said. He said Wilson was distraught about the way the media and his teammates have reacted since it was revealed that he was selling his story of the events surrounding his suspension from the Super Bowl.
