- Share via
Troubled Cleveland Browns wide receiver Josh Gordon has been reinstated to the NFL on a conditional basis but still will be suspended for the first four games of the season.
Commissioner Roger Goodell informed Gordon on Monday that he can rejoin the team during training camp and will be allowed to participate in meetings and conditioning work. The league said once Gordon meets clinical requirements, he will be allowed to participate in all preseason activities, including practices and games.
Gordon, who was suspended for a year for multiple violations of the league’s drug policies, is eligible to return to the team Oct. 3.
Gordon met with Goodell last week, clearing the way for his partial return.
The Browns open training camp Friday.
