Cleveland Browns wide receiver Josh Gordon's petition for reinstatement has been denied by the NFL, a league spokesman confirmed Tuesday. He may re-apply for reinstatement on Aug. 1.
The NFL said it would have no further comment. Gordon, who turns 25 on Wednesday, failed a drug test last month, sources told ESPN, confirming multiple reports. While the level of marijuana reportedly in his system was below the 35 nanogram threshold, the sample was diluted, which is the same as a positive test by the NFL's standards. The news of Gordon's failed test came on the heels of sources telling ESPN that Gordon is living with former Browns quarterback Johnny Manziel off of Sunset Boulevard. Manziel had told TMZ that he was living with Von Miller. The Denver Broncos linebacker said in an Instagram post Monday that Manziel wasn't living with him, but the quarterback was his "brother" and he has his back. The Browns plan to determine Gordon's future with the team after a decision on his reinstatement. If Gordon is reinstated, coach Hue Jackson and director of football operations Sashi Brown would have a lengthy heart-to-heart with him. At that time, the team would judge Gordon's mindset and make a decision on his future. Though the team could release him at any time, the Browns have no immediate plans to do so. Earlier Tuesday, a league source told Schefter that Gordon's reinstatement would be delayed until NFL officials feel comfortable he has 60-90 days of no "red-flag tests. |

So... is he available now? Because I have no qualms with pot and we need another dynamic WR. Kids been getting in the best shape of his life out here in LA this year. Someone teach him how to cheat the drug test and lets do this!

The talent is incredible and a 5th or 6th given up likely wouldn't amount to much anyway. I also wonder how a change of scenery would help a guy like him. I mean, Cleveland is a shit hole by every measure..
But he's a couple years removed from playing and I had absolutely no idea they gave the players 30 days notice before tests. It seems this guy probably has some legitimately psychological disorder. |

You would get him on his rookie contract for the next 3 years, Andy Reid has worked with troubled player before (Desean Jackson) and he would allow for a reall dynamic WR core.

Did Jackson get kicked off his college team after multiple suspensions and then come to the NFL unchanged pulling the same garbage? Was Jackson ever suspended from the league? Was he ever in stage 3 of the substance abuse policy? Was Jackson suspended for more games than he played the first four years of his career? Was he still testing positive while suspended? For that matter I don't think anyone in the history of the NFL has been suspended for more games than Gordon has and he's like 25 |
