Josh Gordon Fails Another Drug Test (Possible Year Ban)

Postby DBSoT » Jan 25, '15, 3:05 pm

Per Adam Schefter's Twitter: Browns WR Josh Gordon flunked another drug test and now will be subject to a one-year banishment, per league sources. More on ESPN @ 6 pm.

I am all for legalizing weed, but come on dude, get it together. How many times do you have to be told No!

Out for a year? That could be his career. My view on weed aside rules are rules and he knows damn well that this is one of them.

Apparently it was for alcohol, not weed and because of his DUI, he is not allowed to drink alcohol which makes sense.

The guy just threw away what could have been, at the very least, an 8 year career earning him a ton of money barring injury. Just a shame to see guys like him piss away an opportunity millions around the world would do just about anything for.

What. A fucking. Idiot.

Dude needs to get some serious help because when you could be one of the game's best at your position and make millions upon millions of dollars throughout a career, you don't just throw it away for a buzz.

I'm incredibly sad for Josh Gordon, he obviously needs some serious help in the decision making department, and I'm sick to my stomach for myself and all other Browns fans who just continue to have crap like this happen for. Honestly devastating.

The Browns seriously need to look into rehab/treatment for their players. Manziel and Gordon both need help and dont appear to be getting it.

Gordon actually checked into rehab last off-season. He came out of rehab and said the doctors there said he wasn't an addict. Then a few weeks late was arrested for a DUI in North Carolina.

Bottom line, if a person doesn't want and accept help to make themselves better then there's nothing anyone can do to help them.

It is most certainly sad. I hate to see what Gordon's doing to his life.

Josh Gordon will not suit up for an NFL game in 2015.

The often-troubled wide receiver has been suspended without pay for at least one year by the NFL for violating the league's substance abuse policy. The suspension begins immediately.

Around The NFL will have more on the story shortly.

Well, considering Gordon's gone and Cameron's about to be gone to free agency. Yeah, I'm gonna need something else. I just don't know exactly what at the moment.

Yeah, although to be accurate he presented it to Jimmy Haslam, Mike Pettine wasn't even in town when the decision was made. This was the first place the whole texting thing became known about.
