Former Seahawks WR Josh Gordon files for reinstatement to NFL

Former Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Josh Gordon has once again filed for reinstatement to the National Football League.

“Josh Gordon officially has submitted his reinstatement letter to NFL commissioner Roger Goodell and hopes to be with a team for training camp, per a league source,” ESPN’s Adam Schefter tweeted Friday. “The NFL has been randomly drug testing Gordon for the past three months and is said to have passed all tests.”

Gordon was suspended indefinitely in December of 2019 after repeated violations of the NFL’s policies on substance abuse and performance-enhancing substances. He was granted conditional reinstatement last December, but it was rescinded just over one month later due to allegations Gordon had experienced a “setback” in his recovery.

If reinstated, Gordon would become an unrestricted free agent.
