FOXBOROUGH, Mass. -- New England Patriots wide receiver Josh Gordon, who is currently serving an indefinite NFL suspension, officially signed his restricted free-agent tender on Tuesday, a league source told ESPN's Field Yates.
This means that if Gordon is reinstated, he would be under contract to the Patriots for 2019 and scheduled to earn a base salary of $2.025 million.
The 28-year-old Gordon played in 11 games for the Patriots during the 2018 regular season, totaling 40 receptions for 720 yards and three touchdowns. He was suspended on Dec. 20 for violating the terms of his reinstatement under the league's substance abuse policy, missing the team's final two regular-season games and all three playoff games.
