He is a difference maker. Here is hoping he is done with dope, and done being a dope.

JG is the man. Really hoping he can dominate the league again like he has in the past.

So what’s the deal I’m reading that he might not be fully reinstated by the league.
Didnt he get reinstated for the last 5 games last year?
Did he do something in the off season that he has to be reinstated again?

Browns place him on non-football injury list and he cannot practice with the team yet. Can attend meetings, workouts and be at practice though.
Since #Brown WR Josh Gordon is still in jointly negotiated substance abuse program, he’s subject to certain conditions. Per @NFLprguy: “This part of the process. Can attend meetings, do conditioning. Can go to practice but not participate. No timetable on next step.” -

Any player given “did not report” status has to file for reinstatement. Standard procedure.

Gordon is like a ticking alarm clock. When wil he return to the team? When will he practice? When will he play? When will he Shmuck up? When will go away? So much drama with a guy that has played 5 games in the last 2 years.

Can a team hire a chaperone?
I’m pretty sure the Bengals had one for Pac-Man Jones and the WR that flew out the back of the pick up truck while he was trying to beat his girlfriend. Worked 50/50 in that case.
Dallas had one for someone at one point too I believe.
If I’m Hue, I’d hire one or a whole team of guys. Even if it cost me out of my own pocket.

Cowboys had hired some guys to keep an eye on someone a few years ago
That was Randy Gregory. I’d say it didn’t go well, but he’s playing again, faster than it took for Flash to get back.

The whole suspension is Retarded. If he'd have killed someone, he probably wouldn't have missed a game

with the wr corp we currently have i dont see the need to rush him. And i mean dez might still be on the table who knows.
all this is up to landry imo. If landry says he can work with josh and dez, bring dez in. But if landry thinks either of em is the ball cancer........bye

It will be up to Hue & Dorsey. But, as I (and others) pointed out before- with Josh back where does (according to the Cowboys lost a step) Dez fit in? #1 Josh, #2 Callaway, slot Landry, #3 Higgins. Yeah, we have the money to buy a very expensive insurance policy in Bryant- but not if he's going to be whining he's not getting enough balls thrown his way. There's a reason he's still unemployed.

Here's hoping he's here for the season... and beyond...
More importantly.. Lets hope Josh has his head on.. And his health in tow... I'm rooting for the kid... Callaway , too..

Easy there newbie from the limpdick state...
First thing is to win a starting job... which he may well do, but lotta rust on JG and in case you haven't noticed... we have three WRs ballin' out.
More importantly.. Lets hope Josh has his head on.. And his health in tow... I'm rooting for the kid... Callaway , too..
Yup... sorta a major prereq to my happy ending.

Josh winning the starting job won't be immediate, and will obviously hinge on his knowledge of the offense more than anything else. His conditioning won't as good as other receivers, but it also won't be terrible either. The main issue will be whether or not he's a liability to our offense. Running the wrong routes, timing problems, etc. He's missed all of training camp so far, and that's not a minor thing, but let's also not forget that he was in the facility for minicamp and OTA's for the first time in his career. That has to count for something.
In terms of winning the starting position, as long as he knows the offense, it obviously won't be an issue. As good as Higgins has looked, he's a far cry from Gordon. When I watched who Baker was throwing to against Buffalo, I couldn't help but think, "How would he be doing with our starting WRs?"
Good luck Josh. You have more support than you know.

Precisely! If Dez had anything left, he would have never made it to Cleveland. When his biggest fan on the planet (Jerruh) says "Don't let the door hit you in the butt on the way out" - it wasn't just the lost step or 2. It was all the finger pointing, calling out Garrett's faves and being a Twittiot.
If we're going to go with infectious - we already brought in the right kind of it with Jarvis Landry. Why mess with that?
Just an idea. Larry Fitzgerald's career got jumper cabled when it appeared he was losing a step and Arians moved his veteran savvy/size to the slot. BABOOMBA! Joe Jurevicius came here and in 2007 - we used his size advantage in the slot to our advantage especially on 3rd downs in particular. Randy Moss was a rookie of the year in the Slot with Carter and Reed on the outsides. So, Landry has been lining up outside a lot especially in training camp practices. Why not move Gordon to a simplified world of facing 3rd corners where he can run slants, posts, flags and drags? And how often is a 3rd corner just a little bit shorter/lighter than the 2 ahead of him in terms of the size advantage Gordon would have? It seems like we should put our change of direction guys on the perimeter where they offer us the ability to run every route in the playbook.
The Safety attention Gordon and Njoku would command should prevent defenses from giving extra attention to Landry and Callaway/Higgins...
