Josh Gordon is hoping to break out of NFL limbo. Currently under an indefinite suspension, the wide receiver wants to play in 2020, according to a source who spoke with ESPN.com’s Jeremy Fowler.
Gordon spent last year with the Patriots and Seahawks. In December, he was slapped with an indefinite suspension for his latest violation of the league’s policy on substances of abuse. The league also flagged him for performance-enhancing substances. This was Gordon’s sixth’s suspension from the league office, so he could be facing an uphill battle.
The new CBA, with eased language against recreational drugs, could work in his favor. If Gordon can convince Roger Goodell to give him another chance, he’ll become an unrestricted free agent.
Last year, Gordon had seven catches for 139 yards in five games for the Seahawks. Coach Pete Carroll has been a huge supporter of Gordon and the wide receiver recently hinted that he’d be interested in a return, so that’s a situation worth monitoring.
I want to play too…doesn’t mean a team should take a chance on me. I loved the talent Gordon had – I SMH at this man’s lack of self control.
Key word being talent
Key word is ‘had’
I’m sure he’d love to find some idiot team to sign him. Hell , i’d love to play in the NFL…At least I havn’t been suspended SIX times for being a doper and cheater.
Go away Josh , you’ve had your chances and blown them all. Go work fast food or be a entrepreneur down on MLK.
He didn’t cheat
article mentions he had a PED violation
So have a lot of people because their system sucks
yeah I hate how they label PEDs, usually it’s over the counter stuff at any Vitamin store which is dumb. They keep that PED label as just clickbait headline grabber
Josh Gordon wants a new bong.
Who doesn’t?
anyone else tired of this guy?
Not as tired as I am of you.
And we’re tired of you, your nastiness and pointless comments.
Should be fine now that the league isn’t testing for weed.
Finally right?!
Yeah totally
How many more suspensions would he need to hold the all-time record?
7…definitely 7
And none of you are top self athletes either. Who cares if he smokes pot? I do. So, FU. I am and have always been a Vikings fan, and they could sure use a good WR. I’d take that chance on a 1 year incentive based prove it deal.
I can’t speak for all of Seattle obviously but every Seahawks fan I know wants JG back in the PNW. And frankly, if teams and fans want to hate on JG and it helps our chances to get him back as our WR3 go on ahead. Let the hate rain down. Sport- it’s just entertainment. I could watch JG make that insane fingertips Superman catch (vs the Panthers in week 15) every week till (if) the 2020 season starts! Lockett, DK, JG, Dissly, G Olsen- RW3 is finally getting some weapons to balance the run game.
Lynch mob mentality here. You people already convicted him.
Well, ideally someone should be convicted by their peers but how to do manage that if all the peers are already dead or behind bars?
Which one of his peers are either? I don’t get this statement
Should read “Josh Gordon wants to sign somewhere and get suspended in 2020”.
What are the odds he plays for Tampa Bay
So does Dez Bryant and T.O.
Huge Seahawks fan here and I definitely want him back!
