This is a huge blow to the Cleveland Browns. Josh Gordon had an amazing 2013 season with 87 receptions, 1646 receiving yards, and 9 touchdowns.
Adam Schefter reports that Gordon will have a chance to be reinstated after the 2014 NFL season is played in it’s entirety.
Browns WR Josh Gordon can ask for reinstatement after 2014 season. Determination made then about training camp 2015.
