The Browns look to be getting something for Josh Gordon, someone that has not played an NFL snap since the 2014 NFL season and seems to have his value decreasing as time goes on.

Gordon was suspended all of the 2015 season, was reinstated in 2016 season but had to miss the first four games and elected to check himself into a rehab facility a week before reinstatement.

Gordon most recently applied for reinstatement on May 11, 2017, but was denied.

Gordon has played in 35 games, starting 32 of those games. Gordon has 161 receptions for 2,754 yards and has a total of 14 touchdown receptions.

Josh Gordon had his best year in 2013 with the Browns when he played in 14 games, recorded 87 catches for 1,646 yards. Gordon finished that year with 9 touchdowns and averaged 117.6 receiving yards per game.
