RENTON —That only one team put in a waiver claim for Josh Gordon was viewed by many around the league as illustrating the skepticism that exists that the oft-troubled receiver will ever play again like the All-Pro he was in 2013 — or be worth the trouble it might take to get anywhere close to that point.
But to Gordon, all that mattered is that the one team that claimed him was the Seahawks.
Gordon said he’s long admired the Seahawks from afar, in large part due to a relationship he said he’s had with Russell Wilson since 2014 or 2015.
