But Gordon, who racked up an incredible 1,646 receiving yards in 2013 from just 14 games, is set to feature in week three of the pre-season for the Browns when they take on the Tampa Bay Buccaneers tonight. “I feel really good to be out there with my teammates, my brothers”. Bucs quarterback Jameis Winston was lighting up the defense, with 259 yards through the air and two touchdowns.

Gordon caught nine touchdown passes in his glorious 2013 season.
Gordon was reinstated on a conditional basis by NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell and will be suspended for the first four games of the 2016-17 season. In the 2015 season, the 25-year-old did not play a single game because he was penalized for violating the NFL’s subtance abuse policy.
“I played with Josh before”. “We’re looking forward to him making the most of that”. I’m excited about it.
Meanwhile, Gordon shrugged off questions about reports that some teams have expressed interest in a potential trade but that the Browns are not interested in moving him. ESPN reported multiple teams have reached out to the Browns to inquire about Gordon.
Green Bay Packers (3-0) 21 San Francisco 49ers (1-2) 10: The 49ers quartet of quarterbacks completed only 9-of-20 throws for 61 yards and one interception, at least gaining a little bit of offense on the ground with 134 yards and one touchdown by Quintion Patton. When the Browns did get some pressure, Winston calmly evaded the rush and made a play. If they are off to a good start, I would expect Gordon to just add fuel to that fire that is the Cleveland Browns. The bigger question for me is whether they will be able to sustain drives with the run game and short passing. He also fumbled once, was sacked five times and did not convert five third downs in a row. A source close to the situation told Garafolo that in return Cleveland was seeking “a second-round pick and then some”. “It’s just about being consistent every day”, the fifth-year pro said after the Browns shared practice fields with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers for a second day. One can imagine the idea of a Fitzgerald-Floyd-Gordon combination with John Brown as the cherry on top for Carson Palmer to throw to.

“More than anything I want to come out of it healthy”, Koetter said. “It’s tough to see one of your guys go like that, but that’s the business I guess”. “It’s where I want to be and I’m happy to be in Cleveland”.
