He's of no interest if he cant play football. no football and he's just another drug user in the ghetto. Wish him the best? No way, he's had the best opportunity 99% of people could ever hope for, he can go away now.It's sad his addiction is so powerful he's basically thrown away what might have been a HOF career, there's no doubting his ability on the field. The Pats had to know this was a possibility when they traded for him, I hope he can finally get the help he so desperately needs, at this point it isn't about him playing football again, it's about him living out the rest of his life substance free, obviously easier said than done, wish him the best
Yeah, I posted it in the Patriots thread. Comes right after JK mentioned him!
Only Josh Gordon can help Josh Gordon.
Addicts need to actively participate in their recovery.
The wide receiver nicknamed "Flash" could be renamed "Flash in the Pan."

If this is because of weed the nfl needs to change their policy. If its something else god bless
Simply not true either, "it's just weed". Weed can lead to other things quite easily.
i assume they knew he had failed and that a suspension was coming, They dont announce the suspension until the appeals have finished(I think), so he prob failed 2 months back when they cut him.The Patriots are usually right when knowing when to let a guy go. Remember how shocked people were when they released Randy Moss? Moss didn't have much left after that.
I'm not sure it takes a genius to notice that gordon smells like a skunk, or to listen to team people telling you he's using again.Bill Belichick is an evil genius though. Thats what I was thinking too. This fucker knew all along but he isnt in the business of helping other teams.
I agree with your points, he's a great coach but his stubborness costs his team greatly at times.Belichick is savy, but he’s overrated.
Yes, in retrospect he’s savy for cutting Gordon & Brown...but if he was REAL savy, he never would have signed those obvious cancers in the first place.
His decision not to call timeout with @ 1:30 left with Seahawks at the 1 yard line in that Super Bowl sticks in my craw as one of the most idiotic decisions by any coach not named
Quinn. He was bailed out by Malcolm Butler’s interception, but that was just dumb luck.
I think he cost the Pats another Super Bowl by not playing Butler AT ALL in the Philly Super Bowl, while Foles picked apart the backups like Joe Montana playing Denver.
Josh Gordon is 28 years old.
Will he make it to age 30? 35? 40?
