NFL reinstates Patriots WR Josh Gordon

https://www.msn.com/en-us/sports/nfl/nfl-reinstates-patriots-wr-josh-gordon/ar-AAFUl9m

"Commissioner Roger Goodell notified Josh Gordon of the New England Patriots that he will be reinstated to the NFL on a conditional basis.
"Effective Sunday, Gordon may rejoin the Patriots to attend meetings and engage in conditioning work and individual workouts.
"Subject to appropriate progress on clinical care and other arrangements, he will be permitted to participate in team activities including practice. Because he will not have had sufficient conditioning and practice time, however, he may attend but may not play in the Patriots' Thursday, August 22 game.
"'We are all rooting for Josh to succeed, both personally and professionally,' said Goodell. 'Everyone shares in that hope and will continue to support him to every extent possible. But as Josh acknowledged, ultimately his success is up to him.'


"The only true currency in this bankrupt world is what you share with someone else when you're uncool."

Why reinstate him just to suspend him in a few months? The dude ain't gonna quit weed, either let him have it or tell him it's over.

Maybe he should get a job at Mike Tyson's ranch?

Goodell is simply a prop. He isn't the one making this decision.

What's the over/under on the amount of games he plays before being suspended again?

hoping he can stay clean this time. instead of judging him, how about you "Christians" pray that he is able to overcome his demons.

Sure there's reason to be skeptical, but above all else here's hoping that this time Josh keeps himself clean and has a great season.

A better question is why does the league care if he smokes weed?

I love how John Morris incorrectly identifies him on both of the first two plays of those highlights.

It's called history my friend. Of course we pray he can clean up his dope smoking life but "history" tells us he won't. Thanks for judging us though. Ass clown.

I'll be a prop for $40 million a year.

All-Pro if he lasts the entire season.
Too bad the NBA didn't give Roy Tarpley as many chances.

It's also illegal to speed. They don't go out of their way (they have to do that to find out he smoked) to catch speeders.

Besides, it's only illegal in some places. The NHL doesn't test for weed and the NBA? I'm not sure they do even though it's policy.

It wasn't affecting his game.

John Morris needs to be drug tested after calling Josh Gordon Tevin Reese.

No matter what you've done, if you can play, they pay.

Don't give me false hopes of JMo being suspended from working Baylor games.

Im all for Josh Gordon and I perpetually hope that he will get it together but man this is like his 6,219th chance. And I agree that history tends to repeat itself and, unfortunately, yes, 0.5 games on the over/under

1. No it isn't illegal everywhere. but using your logic teams in states that have legalized it should be able to sign players that can then smoke.

2. So is killing people and teams have signed players who have done so and the league lets them play

3. So is drinking and driving and again the league has let players play after doing this.

4. So are about 20 other things that players have been arrested for and still been able to play after.

The only 2 crimes that seem to get a person kicked out of the NFL are domestic assault and weed.

And with both of those the players get suspended and some never play again even when they get the charges dismissed, dropped or don't ever get charged.

Well unless it is a player who gets in trouble for the assault in college and goes to OU.

If he is clean and stays clean all season the pats offense just took a major leap forward.

But more than football I hope he has turned a corner and is done with the abuse.

John being John. I've often wondered if they pay the guy.

I'll say it once, I'll say it again. I don't care if I ever see him play football. All I care about is that he gets his life straight.

Habitual problem drug users and alcoholics don't make for reliable family members and dependable friends. He will suffer far more from that than any gain from playing football could justify.

It's a good thing I keep hearing weed is not addictive.

What's the vegas over/under line on Gordon or Antonio playing in more NFL games this season?
