Josh Gordon to sign Chiefs’ contract after being reinstated from indefinite suspension | Launderer report

Josh Gordon found home with the Kansas City Chiefs after being reinstated by the NFL.

Adam schefter ESPN reported on Monday that Gordon is planning to sign with Kansas City, which Agents Eric Dounn and Matt Leist have confirmed.

NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reported that Gordon will start on the Chiefs’ practice squad:

This will be Gordon’s last attempt to resurrect his career. Schefter reported on September 24 that the NFL was reinstating the 30-year-old after his January suspension for violating the terms of his conditional reinstatement.

Gordon has been suspended six times by the NFL, including five times for violating drug addiction policy. He did not play at all during the 2015 and 2016 seasons due to a suspension.

Schefter noted that Gordon should be eligible to play as early as week 4.

Gordon became a free agent in March when he was released by the Seattle Seahawks. The 2013 Pro Bowler did not appear in a game with the team during the 2020 season.

The last time Gordon played in an NFL game was with the Seahawks on December 15, 2019, against the Carolina Panthers. He received a reception for 58 yards in a 30-24 win.

Gordon returned to professional football earlier this year when he signed a contract with the Zappers of fan-controlled football. The Baylor alum scored two touchdowns in his first FCF game.

Despite his limited experience in the NFL, especially in recent seasons due to suspensions, Gordon has been one of the league’s most productive wide receivers when he plays.

In 63 career games, Gordon has caught 247 passes for 4,252 receiving yards and 20 touchdowns. His 17.2 yards per reception are the second best among active players, behind only DeSean Jackson (17.5).

The Chefs hope Gordon can play at that high level for them this season. It is a low risk investment for the organization that could potentially reap a high reward, given its talent and capabilities.
