Report: Patriots to Discipline Josh Gordon, Bench WR for 'Several Series' vs. Bills

Patriots wide receiver Josh Gordon will be benched for "several series" during New England's matchup with the Bills on Monday, according to the NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Gordon will be benched due to "tardiness" according to Rapoport.

The 2013 Pro Bowler is expected to miss "about a quarter" before returning to regular playing time. Monday night will mark Gordon's fifth game with New England after being traded from Cleveland on Sept. 17. Gordon has caught 13 passes for the Patriots this season including his first touchdown from Tom Brady in Week 5.
