Ever since Cleveland Browns wide receiver Josh Gordon announced that he would miss the start of training camp as part of his ongoing treatment for substance abuse and its accompanying issues with mental health and anxiety, fans and media have actively speculated on the “real” reasons.
This is one of the “calmer” tweets from ESPN’s Stephen A. Smith:
He failed a test.
He didn’t fail a test, but he knew he would and got into the “protection” of rehab before he could test positive.
He will be suspended. He won’t be suspended.
It’s easy to understand.
