The Kansas City Chiefs are expected to sign wide receiver Josh Gordon. This player is eligible to play from week 4 after being suspended for drug abuse.
Gordon (30) was expected in Kansas City on Monday and is expected to join the team’s practice squad, like Adam Schefter von ESPN reported. An appointment to the active squad is only a matter of time.
Accordingly, several teams would have reported to Gordon after his reinstatement in the league and expressed interest in a commitment. However, Gordon prefers KC to stay there for the long term, like his agents Eric Dounn and Matt Leist from LAA Sports ESPN declared.
Wide receiver is a problem area for the Chiefs, who have been looking for an established starter across from Tyreek Hill since Sammy Watkins left the Free Agency (Baltimore Ravens). Neither Mecole Hardman nor Demarcus Robinson or Byron Pringle had convinced in this role so far.
Josh Gordon banned since 2019
Gordon had been banned indefinitely since December 2019 for violating league guidelines on substance abuse and performance enhancing drugs. It was Gordon’s sixth NFL suspension since 2013.
Gordon played for the Cleveland Browns, New England Patriots and Seattle Seahawks since 2012 and has so far had 4,252 receiving yards and 20 touchdowns in 63 games. His best season was in 2013 when he led the league with 1646 yards (9 TD).
