Maybe Joyner and the Rams are on the verge of a long-term contract, and Joyner (and the Rams) don't want to risk injury right now.
They can't negotiate a long term deal with him anymore this year.

I might have read something incorrectly but.

Don't players get a mandatory drugs test at the beginning of Training Camp?
Joyner gets put on the NFI and misses the start of Training Camp and also the drugs test?

Am I joining too many dots that don't exist?

Gotta take the test no matter what your injury designation is.

Training on your own in the offseason isn’t football related. I think to be football related it has to happen with the team in training or in game action. Could be wrong though. I don’t know any details of the reason why so can’t really speculate on what it is.
It pretty much is perfectly related. I don't know that the contracts read that way, but if they expect the guys to come to camp in shape and they expect the guys to be athletes, then working out has to be expected and probably encouraged all times of the year.

I took it as essentially "on" or "off" the clock. Basically if it wasn't an organized activity such as camp, practice, etc, then it's considered NFI.
