It wasn’t a healthy relationship between Josh Gordon and the Cleveland Browns. They had a lot of faith in him and as general manager John Dorsey pointed out in his press release, they spent six years fully invested in his future.
Gordon, however, did not share that investment. Time after time, he let them down.
Even after they invested a second-round pick despite his troubles at Baylor. Even after a suspension in 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, and 2017. Hell, even after he finally made it back for five games in 2017 and then wasn’t there with the rest of the team at camp, they supported it and were there for him.
