Despite past issues with the organization, Josh Gordon is relieved he will be staying with the Browns.

Cleveland.com reported Tuesday the Browns have declined recent overtures by teams interested in trading for the troubled wide receiver, even though he has been suspended 26 games in the last two seasons.

"I haven't heard too much about it,'' Gordon told reporters of the trade rumors. "Cleveland is my team. That's where I want to be, everything like that. That's not even in the ballpark for me. I'm not sure how that works.''

Gordon in Cleveland also is coupled with an old friend in former Baylor teammate Robert Griffin III, who was signed this offseason to reestablish himself as a starting quarterback.
