I think stage 2 lasts two years. If they are in stage 3 of the program, then they will not get to reset their records from the looks of it. Since they've failed 3 drug tests, they very well could be in Stage 3 and they have to be clean the rest of their career.

Completion of Stage Two: A player who completes Stage Two
without being advanced to Stage Three will be afforded the same
status as a player who had never by Behavior or a Positive Test
been referred to the Intervention Stages.

Also to note. If a player is in stage 3, he's in it for the rest of his career so no mulligans it looks like.

Term: A player in Stage Three will remain in Stage Three
for the remainder of his NFL career.

I'll edit my prior response so people aren't misled.
