Josh Gordon 'Extremely Filled With Gratitude' As He Returns From Suspension

Josh Gordon's "No. 1 objective" for his return to regular-season action was to "have as much fun as possible," according to Mike Reiss of ESPN.com.

Gordon, who was suspended by the NFL in December for "multiple violations" of the substance abuse policy, played in his first game since Week 15 of last season when he suited up Sunday for the Patriots' 30-point thrashing of the rival Steelers.

On Sunday night, Gordon's plan was "go as hard and put as much of myself out there as I possibly could," and it helped him reel in three grabs for 73 yards and a touchdown.
