It took longer than initially expected but Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Josh Gordon has finally been reinstated from suspension by the NFL, per Jay Glazer. Gordon will be eligible to return in Week 16.
Gordon’s fifth suspension, handed down in December of last year, was for violations of both the performance-enhancing and substances of abuse policies. Having also tested positive for a masking agent, Gordon will have ended up serving an 18-game suspension, including last season’s postseason.
Soon to be reinstated and already re-signed by the Seahawks, Gordon will boost a wide receiver corps led by two dynamic talents in Tyler Lockett and DK Metcalf.
