CBS Sports Insider Jason La Canfora Patriots will be sending a 2019 fifth-round pick to Cleveland in exchange for the wide receiver.The Browns that there's a conditional late-round pick involved in the deal that would potentially go to New England. According , if Gordon isn't on the Patriots' active roster for at
Russell Gage Jersey least 10 games this season, then the Patriots will get a 2019 seventh-round pick from the Browns as part of the deal. What this all means is that Gordon is now officially headed to New England and is going to have an insanely talented weapon at his disposal. More on the NFL Of course, the one problem with that weapon is that it's
Matt Ryan Jersey not always on the field. The receiver has mi sed a total of 54 games over the past four seasons (2014-17) due to multiple NFL suspensions. However, he should be able to play as soon as he's healthy in New England. CBS Sports NFL Insider Jason La Canfora reported on Saturday that the Browns' had nothing to do with a potential drug i sue or looming suspension. The Browns on Saturday that they were going to "part ways" with Gordon after keeping him for six-plus years.Although there's no looming suspension, one thing that could have effect on his ability to play right away in New England is his current health. The receiver is dealing with a tight hamstring that he . That injury, along with the fact that Gordon reportedly on Saturday, ended up being his final two strikes with the Browns.Despite the hamstring injury, Gordon could be on the field as soon as this week for the Patriots.

If Gordon does turn into a receiving threat with the Patriots, that would be good news for Brady. The Patriots receivers got shut down by the on Sunday and have been one of the weakest units on the team through two weeks. Of the 24 pa ses that Brady completed in New England's 31-20 lo s to Jacksonville, 13 went to a running back or tight end (for 130 yards) and only 11 of those pa ses went to receivers (for 104 yards). Of that total, 66 of those yards by Patriots receivers came in garbage time at the end of the fourth quarter when the game was out of reach.As for Gordon, he had reportedly been to either the or 49ers, but you have to think that he'
Kyle Pitts Jersey ll have no problem being sent to a contender like the Patriots. The structured setup in New England could be the perfect place for Gordon to turn his career around.
