ESPN recently reported that talented wide receiver Josh Gordon has applied for reinstatement to the NFL and is hopeful he will be signed by a team by training camp.
The often-troubled Gordon was suspended indefinitely by the league in December 2019 amid battles with substance abuse. ESPN reported that the league has been drug testing Gordon for the past three months and he has passed all of the tests.
So, if Gordon does get reinstated, should the Las Vegas Raiders consider signing him?
It’s an interesting case. Gordon is 30 and hasn’t played consistently for a long time, totally just 24 games in the past six seasons.
