Patriots place Josh Gordon on non-football injury list

The Patriots have placed recently reinstated wide receiver Josh Gordon on the non-football injury (NFI) list, according to the NFL.

Gordon, 28, will still count toward New England’s 90-man roster, though he cannot practice with the team until he comes off NFI. If Gordon remains on NFI at the conclusion of the preseason, Aug. 31, then he must also sit out the first six weeks of the regular season.

On Friday, commissioner Roger Goodell notified Gordon he would be reinstated on a conditional basis. Starting Sunday, he was permitted to rejoin the team, attend meetings, and “engage in conditioning work and individual workouts.
