Veteran wide receiver Josh will once again play for the Seattle Seahawks. Seattle and Gordon have already worked out a deal he has signed for as soon as he is reinstated into the National Football League. David Canter, Gordon’s agent, tweeted the news Thursday morning.
Gordon was on Seattle’s roster for five games last season before he was suspended for violating the league’s substance abuse and performance-enhancing drug policies after testing positive for a banned substance and a masking agent. He was then suspended indefinitely by the NFL.
He submitted his application for reinstatement in June and it is going “very well,” per ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler. Gordon must be reinstated before he can play this season.
Josh Gordon deal now done, per @davidcanter. I'm told his reinstatement process is going very well and so Seattle got cranking on this yesterday and this morning.

Gordon started one of five games played for the Seahawks in 2019 and logged seven receptions for 139 yards.
This story is continuing to develop.
