Cleveland Browns WR Josh Gordon is being reinstated by the NFL conditionally, according to a source. He will be suspended for the first four games of the season.
Footballguys View: A huge win for the Browns here. The team has already stated they would welcome Gordon back with open arms. New head coach Hue Jackson is giving everyone a clean slate, and Gordon will certainly help the entire offense. He’s one of the most naturally talented players at his position, but staying out of trouble and off the suspended list has been difficult during his pro career. The Browns QB situation isn’t great, but Gordon should perform like a WR3 with WR1 upside for fantasy owners when he returns. He’s going off the board at WR53 (11.06) right now in 12-team PPR leagues, but that should rise with this news.
