Browns wide receiver Josh Gordon will be out of rehab on September 21, former Olympic sprinter Tim Montgomery tells Mary Kay Cabot of cleveland.com. Montgomery, who has been working with Gordon for the last six months, says that Gordon is hoping to have the indefinite suspension lifted soon after he is released. 
Gordon has had multiple problems with the league office, so it’s not clear if commissioner Roger Goodell would allow him to return to football right away. At minimum, one has to imagine that the NFL will want to see if Gordon can stay on the straight and narrow for a period of time before giving him the green light. If that’s the case, we might not see Gordon suit up in 2017.
If Gordon is allowed back in football, the Browns will have a tough decision to make. While Gordon is one of the league’s most talented receivers, he may not be a fit for Hue Jackson‘s locker room. Jackson said last year he was ready to move on from the 26-year-old, but he seemed at least open to his return when asked about him in May.
“He’s not back, so I don’t even want to really get into that right now,” Jackson said. “I wish Josh well, and we’ll cross all those bridges when we get there.”
When asked about Gordon’s status, a league spokesman told PFT that there is “no update” at this time. That means that Gordon has yet to file for reinstatement, which makes sense considering that he is still in rehab. When Gordon was denied reinstatement this offseason, the league informed him that he could reapply in the fall, so he could get the ball rolling soon.
He double pinky swears he’s a changed man ! I won’t inhale…..promise….PAY ME ! Go smoke a bowl ! The NFL goes on….
You can take the urban thug out of the ghetto but you cant take the ghetto out of the urban thug. Dude should get his life right and not worry about making millions
To him his life is right when he’s smoking dope and getting high. Once he’s done playing ball, if he isn’t already, he’ll be blazing up nonstop. If pissing away a good paycheck and living isn’t enough to make a person stop nothing will. He needs a personal assistant 24-7 like Josh Hamilton had that will try to keep him clean and sober.
