it will be interesting how long before he's re-instated

It will be interesting to see if he's reinstated.

I just hope it's like a couple months ago and we get a final word quickly... until the next comeback.

Maybe in light of the current NFL fiasco, Goodell will reinstate Gordon.

Kind of a publicity measure.

I think it would be a good move by Goodell.

The three X chromosomes in the tip of my left index finger that still like the Browns would be happy.



Go Browns!!!

I really don't understand the hold up of reinstating him..

I've not seen confirmation that he has re-applied.

I'm sure this is just a very minor detail.

I have to imagine at this point if Gordon "re-applies" it's only a minor formality.

In other words, I'm predicting if he "re-applies", he's back.

I hope your right getting him back would be a big boost to this Offense as well as getting Garrett back being a big boost to our D ...

So the question is then why hasn't he applied for reinstatement?

Refuses to answer his phone?

Is out of town?

Dog ate his homework?

Is back in rehab?



Um, Josh? WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR?!

He will reapply after the party.

JG gets reinstated game 15, finishes the regular season as Browns leading WR LMFAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

That's very funny.

waiting until he can pass his drug test..

How many games does he have to play in to count as a “season” with us?

I'm not really sure about the how the whole thing works, but I believe he has re-applied. Going to the rehab was part of the process. Now I believe the NFL has to receive recommendations from some people now, and then probably have a level of bureaucratic paperwork, and then we'll finally have our answer on if he's playing or not. I know in July I read a thing about Gordon trying to return by the Lions game on the 22nd of October. It sounds like everything is going by the timeline.

i dont know why i think this, but I think 10

It is.

Josh Gordon's petition for reinstatement denied by NFL, can apply again in the fall

sure sounds like he has to reapply..

I stand corrected. It sounds like he's getting all of his ducks set in a row. If his work with numa speed pays off, and he is faster than he was at 22, Kizer might have found his favorite target. I'd suggest you guys pick him up in fantasy football before this news becomes too public.

Bracing myself.

What could possibly go wrong. If he comes back, who goes?

Goodell could stand him as a distraction. Right now Gordon and J. Football are in a statistical dead heat in their race to the bottom.

Celebratory hotbox in the locker room, while the coaches celebrate his return with a champagne party? After the team jet incident, I don't doubt their level of stupidity anymore.

Six games.

That's why his last game as a Brown in 2014 (where he was suspended by the team for not showing up to rehab or team meeting or whatever) was kind of a big deal. That would have been his sixth game at full pay status and would have counted as an accrued season toward free agency.

There was a grievance there and I'm not sure how that was resolved.

Yeah, for some reason I read that as 10 games suspended. But yeah, I'd honestly be down for them to do that again this year, if it's warranted. We still have him for a year after this. That's crazy.

Has anybody known the NFL to move quickly in matters such as this?

Yep.

Summer is over, at least calendar-wise. Fall started on Friday, September 22nd.

I know everyone has already provided their $.02 on Josh and his issues, but for his sake, I hope he's got it figured out this time. This isn't even a Browns thing. This is probably his last NFL chance ever.

into rehab?

Only when it involves steeler players.

I agree. I am rooting for him.

Without football, his qualities are limited.


I like to see people make it with the qualities God gave them.

How many of us will react like this if JG returns:

Reinstated

once again, i'm now falling into the trap of hoping for the Flash to return.

damnit damnit damnit!!!!!

Do we need our own addiction center?


Check me back in!

It will be interesting how long before he’s re-admitted.

Props for this post.
Big ups!

LMAO

I just don't know how the Browns will approach this when the time comes. Can't answer for them

On one hand, he was (and perhaps could be again) a real talent. Nobody can really deny that.

But yet, you spend the time to get him ready, coach him up, he goes out and blows it again!

It's almost like your damned if you do and damned if you don't.

I really don't know what the right answer it. Either decision would be questioned.

I guess it comes down to, do we need a WR that is a game changer? Yes we do. he's under contract and cheap. I'd give it a shot but on a very short leash.
