When I first read this, I thought this was a joke. Per Reiss below, I guess not....wow, in total shock

Josh Gordon says he is stepping away to focus on his mental health.

 

[Kontradiction]

Sucks that the coaching staff whiffed on the position and we had to rely on him. That was always the threat. That's it for the 2018 Patriots. Night, night.

 

[ViperGTS]

And there it is. Bleacher Report just reported he was facing indefinite suspension for violating his reinstatement terms aka he was doing drugs again. Damn. This guy needs serious help.

He’s finished. This was his last chance.

 

[XLIX]

He’s not stepping away so much as the NFL is once again giving him the boot

I can't begin to imagine what demons must haunt him. I hope he can find some peace.. Thanks and good luck.

 

[Triumph]

I have zero sympathy for him.

Go move to Jamaica where you can smoke reefer all day on the beach.

We need a real WR this off-season. Not a ticking time bomb like Gordon, not a Patterson type guy, and not another project like Dorsett. A REAL WR.

I am honestly so disappointed. I was really hoping he would turn it around. Just hope he gets the proper treatment he needs.

We needed one of those last offseason too.

 

[Guts]

He was just getting better too.

Such a disappointment

Yeah, a kilo of Thai stick or Apapolco Gold.

I just went to bleacher report and saw a copy paste post of his twitter feed. Was the drug/suspension thing a BR twitter post?

Patterson could be a nice piece.
Calvin Ridley was there we could of drafted Ridley and Kirk and been in good shape.
Time to go get the Pitt wr scout.

like Brandin Cooks?

 

[Kontradiction]

If it's a suspension looming for drugs/alcohol, his career in the NFL is over. He'll be stepping away permanently.

 

[neuronet]

Well that sucks he doesn't have the mental toughness to be a Patriot. He should join the Eagles so he can have fun.

 

[Ross12]

Well, this sucks.

 

[Todd Bradley]

Welp boys, that’s probably the nail in the coffin.

Sad part is he was so close to finishing the year without any issue. Was happy to see the guy turn the corner.

Guess it was all smoke and mirrors...

 

[randomk1]

Sorry but that's an immature POS move as expected.

Why pretend and let everybody else put in time and effort with him?

Just retire before the season starts.

Everybody has their own issues so no sympathy for this guy.
