Former Olympic track star Tim Montgomery said Wednesday that Cleveland Browns wide receiver Josh Gordon is nearing completion of rehab and hopes to be reinstated by the NFL soon after.
Montgomery has helped mentor Gordon, according toMary Kay Cabotof Cleveland.com, and he said Gordon will be out of rehab on Sept. 21 after a 90-day stint.
Montgomery expressed confidence that the NFL will end Gordon's suspension once he is able to apply for reinstatement: "He's been clean, so we're hoping after 90 days he's reinstated and they put him back in the league, which it looks like they're going to do that.
