ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. -- New England Patriots wide receiver Josh Gordon started Monday night's game against the Buffalo Bills, despite a report that he would be kept off the field for about a quarter because of tardiness.
Any discipline for Gordon would be a decision made by head coach Bill Belichick. The Patriots, through a team spokesman, were not commenting on the NFL Network report in the hours leading up to kickoff. The report said Gordon was expected to be kept off the field for "several series" before he would receive his regular playing time.
