NFL Decides Patriots’ Josh Gordon’s Fate

Josh Gordon keeps making headlines, and it looks like the best is yet to come. The suspended wide receiver applied for restoration from the NFL.

Here comes the best part. The league decided to reinstate the wide receiver, and Adam Schefter was the first to report the big news. This is a big information for the Patriots nation. It’s more like a relief. The team wanted Gordon back, and he is finally available for some good football.

The Patriots have rooted for their teammate. The Cleveland Browns didn’t want Gordon, but he was brilliant in Foxboro.

“There wasn’t many opportunities, but he was around, and I needed someone to catch,” quarterback Tom Brady said. “I’ve always enjoyed playing with him and obviously hope everything works out for him. I’m hoping the best, certainly.”

“It definitely would mean a lot to him, because I know it means a lot to him to just play football,” Dorsett recently told ESPN’s Mike Reiss. “I was definitely close to him. I just hope he gets himself right. That’s my main concern — just him as a human being. I don’t really care about the football thing. I just want to see him be healthy in his mind, his body and spirit.”

“I’d be happy for him,” McCourty agrees with his teammates. “I think at this point, everybody here, you’re just encouraging and you just hope everything is working right with him — not only with reinstatement but just in life, that he’s doing well, progressing the way he needs to progress. If the next step in that progression is coming back to the team, obviously everyone here would be thrilled to have him. He’s an awesome person, dealing with things just like the rest of us.”

What does Coach say about this?

Head coach Bill Belichick didn’t say much about Gordon during one of his recent press conferences.

“We don’t have anything to do with Josh Gordon,” he said at a training camp press conference. “He’s suspended. You need to talk to the league. We have no control over Josh Gordon.”

Well, now we have the answer to all of our questions. Gordon is coming back. Is this why Harry N’Keal gave up on his No. 10 jersey?
