Gordon to IR

2.025M/17 x Weeks remaining to end season.

So I’m guessing Belichick’s reasoning is the fact that Gordon falls off the wagon around this time, so instead of dealing with a suspension, he’d rather cut bait sooner than later and get some cap space out of it. He hasn’t looked right all season and Harry is coming.

Man that really stinks... at least we're getting close to where Harry could come back and we have Sanu now as a solid veteran

Honest question, with Gordon's addiction situation how does that factor into his medical treatment on his knee? What if he had to have a surgery or something, how do they manage all of that with someone in his situation?

I'd hate to see Josh get down on himself during this time, hopefully he's surrounded by a lot of positive people and focuses on his rehab from this injury

From what I have been reading he is relatively healthy and the Pats will be releasing him. Wonder what happened?

I agree he was photographed walking on the practice field with Sanu earlier today. There’s more to this.

Fair enough. I’m the minority here.

Translation: there is no room for him in NE so they put him on "IR"

The IR and possible waiving is very strange..
We could wait 2-3 weeks for him to get healthy, we waited more for the jag Lacosse.
When healthy (like last year and the 1st game of this year) he was a good weapon for Brady

Its puzzling for sure. We need to wait for more info on this.

Yeah IF Tom wants to throw it to Harry.

It would seem that Josh Gordon was surprised by his being IRed.. based on his instagram comment.

Something in milk aint clean

So with Dorsett establishing himself in the offense (on pace to have his best year), Meyers' emerging, whatever Harry has shown in practice since he returned and the addition of Sanu Gordon was the odd-man

Hope this means we are making more moves before next Thursday.

Brady could turn rocker Debbie Harry into an all pro..i'm sure he will do well with N'Keal Harry

Hoping this doesn't cause him to fall off the wagon. Stay strong, Josh.

Maybe you have it backwards.

Why are we waiving a perfectly healthy wide receiver who knows the offense and is productive in this offense?

This is just bizarre. Meanwhile lacosse and Izzo sit injured with bill waiting for them

Gordon isn't healthy. He might be healthier than he was, but he's not ready to take the field.

So what team signs Gordon? San Fran? Packers? Detroit?

We need to sign another ST ace to take the roster spot.
