Josh Gordon's absence leaves Browns with big void at receiver

Josh Gordon's self-reported news that he will not be present for the opening of training camp has two elements.

The first is human, as Gordon attempts to continue to work on a daily basis in a fight with addiction.

But there's also the team element, and when it comes to that aspect of the renewed uncertainty about Gordon's long-term status, the Browns' answers aren't easy.

Gordon's absence turns a receiver group that players had been gushing (excessively) about into this: Jarvis Landry and a bunch of guys.

The void should not be understated.
