WATCH: Josh Gordon suspended indefinitely for violating substance abuse policy again

Josh Gordon is suspended again.

The NFL announced Monday that the 28-year-old is suspended indefinitely for failing to follow the league’s policies on performance-enhancing substances and substances of abuse.

This is the fifth suspension in eight seasons for Gordon, this one impacts the Seattle Seahawks (11-3) who claimed the wide receiver off waiver wires in November. This is the second indefinite suspension in two seasons after Gordon was suspended indefinitely late last year while with the New England Patriots.

The NFL conditionally reinstated Gordon just before the start of this season, then he played in six games with New England (11-3). After 20 receptions for 287 yards and one touchdown, the Pats waived Gordon and the Seahawks picked him up the next day.

With Seattle, Gordon made a mere seven receptions on 11 targets for 130 yards, averaging 26 snaps per game.

The Seahawks clinched a playoff berth Sunday and now prepare to host the Arizona Cardinals (4-9).
