Josh Gordon Responds To Tardiness Report, Thanks Teammates For Help

Josh Gordon and his alleged discipline are making headlines these days, but it seems like none of that was true. Gordon did not comment the discipline report.

However, he did respond to another question, and helped everyone realize that he had problems with arriving on time since joining the New England Patriots in mid-September. Gordon talked to media members in front of his locker, and someone asked if he has “done a good job in terms of being on time and being where he needs to be.”

“If I haven’t. I’ve been helped along the way. So I’m definitely thankful for all the help I’ve gotten here and definitely appreciative as I figure my way out here,” he responded.

When other reporter asked him about the discipline report that first came from NFL Media’s Ian Rapoport, Gordon gave the perfect response. “I do not have any comment on it, but I heard about it,” he said.

Gordon played in 84 percent of the offensive snaps in the Patriots’ 25-6 victory, and had a great contribution to the team. He also thanked his teammates for all the help he got so far.

It’s been great. I’m getting all the opportunity I could want, patience from the treatment staff, coaching staff, teammates. Everybody’s helping me along the way. It’s been a great opportunity and experience, and hopefully we’ll just keep that going on through the rest of the season. For a guy like in my position, transitioning can be a difficult thing for you, and they’ve made it real easy for me,” he added.

“The expectation from us is high, and I think it’s warranted. They give a lot to us and expect a lot in return. If we come in every day and do what we’re supposed to do, we’ll be rewarded in that. But none of it goes without it being directed in the right way. Everybody knows about it. It’s in the right context and content. We know what we have to do, it’s set out for us, and we try to go get it done,” the former Cleveland Browns star said.
