Gordon was reinstated in December after being suspended for substance abuse violations, but an unspecified issue quickly happened, which resulted in him never playing in a game.
Now, he won’t be playing anytime soon from the sounds of it.
Per source, Josh Gordon and the Seahawks were notified today that he has not satisfied all terms of his conditional reinstatement. He may attend team meetings and individual workouts but he is ineligible at this time to participate in practices or games.

It really does feel like this is the end of the road for Gordon. After all the chances he’s gotten, I just don’t see him getting another one.
Clearly, he has issues that he needs to work on.

If Gordon isn’t in a good place mentally and with substance abuse, then football won’t matter. He needs to take care of himself off the field before he even thinks about what happens on the field.
Unfortunately, I have a feeling we’ve seen the last of Gordon in the NFL. If this truly is the end, he’ll be remembered as one of the worst cautionary tales in the history of sports.

So much talent and we never got to see him utilize it. What a damn shame.
