Popular Post Pac Posted October 24, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted October 24, 2019 Reports: Josh Gordon expected to be waived off IR when healthy Posted by Charean Williams on October 23, 2019, 6:15 PM EDT The Patriots placed Josh Gordon on injured reserve Wednesday, a day after acquiring receiver Mohamed Sanu from the Falcons. It might not signal the end of Gordon’s season, though. Gordon’s knee injury is considered “minor,” according to multiple reports, and he expects to be cleared soon. The receiver recently went 22 mph on a treadmill during his rehab, Albert Breer of Sports Illustrated reports. Gordon replied to NFL Media’s tweet about the Patriots placing him on IR with one word: “Interesting.” The Patriots are expected to waive Gordon off injured reserve once he’s cleared, according to Ian Rapoport of the NFL, allowing Gordon to play with another team this season. If they waive him after Tuesday’s trade deadline, Gordon would be subject to waivers. That would improve New England’s chances of keeping Gordon away from an AFC competitor with the worst teams getting the first shots at waiver claims. Gordon has two bone bruises in his knee, which he aggravated against the Giants. He has not played since the Oct. 10 game. Gordon warmed up at practice Wednesday but did not participate. He has 20 catches for 287 yards and a touchdown this season, and 60 catches for 1,007 yards and four touchdowns in 17 games with the Patriots over the past two seasons. The league handed Gordon an indefinite suspension for another violation of the league’s substance abuse policy Dec. 20, but Commissioner Roger Goodell lifted it during training camp. ****** No reason not to bring him in although if/when we win at J-Ville that might take us out of the running. Keep him for the year and sign him to a contract that allows for an out if he's suspended again. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joewilly12 Posted October 24, 2019 Share Posted October 24, 2019 Absolutely and you write a contract that is incentive laden and that if suspended again for any reason the contract is null and void. Josh Gordon healthy and head on right is a top NFL WR. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just going of stats from playing high and drunk VS playing Sober. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skeptable Posted October 24, 2019 Share Posted October 24, 2019 He is good for a possession over the middle guy but he runs bad, lazy routes which is why he struggled so much in New England... It is well known that Brady hates freelance WRs 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No way the scumbag Pats are letting him walk for no reason This is exactly what I thought. If he's healthy enough to play, even if it takes another week or two, why wouldn't the WR starved New England Patriots keep him? Even if he was going to be their #4 or something, why waive him? Something smells fishy....and it's not just Robert Kraft's fingers! 4 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is well known that Brady hates freelance WRs Don’t agree. He still runs routes pretty well. The problem is he’s lost his legs a bit. This has been the case since his return to Cleveland, where his explosiveness took a hit after his extended departure and he was never quite the same. He still has a great catch radius, but he’s not the same guy that was blowing by every db on go routes. This means very little separation, which is probably not great for a young qb. He’s basically DT at this point, with just the upside that he is still young and could in principle get some legs back with the right training. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Harris Posted October 24, 2019 Share Posted October 24, 2019 He also looks over muscled, hefty, def a tier down in explosivity. Would still be excited to have him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jgb Posted October 24, 2019 Share Posted October 24, 2019 Gordon is a troubled man. He needs a team with a solid support structure and vets around him. That ain’t the Jets. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His stats would be better but Brady actually missed him wide open getting behind the Washington secondary a couple weeks ago and he got injured early in the giant game Unfortunately I drafted this clown in fantasy so I followed him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ghost_in_pads02 Posted October 24, 2019 Share Posted October 24, 2019 He has done nothing for the Pats in the little time he has played. Why would you want him? And if AB didnt want to play for the raiders making 40 mill, why would he want to come to the jets now? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

isired Posted October 24, 2019 Share Posted October 24, 2019 Yeah this management-by-reacting to whatever the Pats do or don't do vibe from some of the fans is just miserable. And it's certainly no way to manage an NFL franchise. If you're so worried about the Pat's, do you think the Pats are ever worried about what another team is doing?

Receiver is waaaay down the list on what needs to be improved on this team. And Gordon is washed up so there is no sense in signing him. We have filled up our quota of washed up receivers with Demaryius thomas. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
