On Monday, the New England Patriots pulled off a trade for Josh Gordon. In exchange for the extremely talented and equally troubled 27-year old wide receiver, the Pats sent a conditional 2019 fifth-round selection to the Cleveland Browns. If Gordon fails to be active for at least 10 games this season, Cleveland will send New England a 2019 seventh-rounder in return.
Despite several reports that the Dallas Cowboys had no interest in acquiring Gordon, ESPN NFL insider Adam Schefter tweeted that America’s Team actually spoke to the Browns about a possible trade for said player.
