Chiefs Josh Gordon snaps years-long scoreless streak with TD

  • July 25, 2022
    Josh Gordon hadn't done much since being reinstated from suspension Jake Smolinski Jersey and joining the Chiefs.He had just two catchesfor 18 yards in his first eight games with the team and was largely an afterthought on the team's depth chart.

    But against the Raiders in Week 14, he was finally able to break through.

    INJURY UPDATE:

    The Chiefs were up 21-0 in Kendrys Morales Jersey the second quarter when Andy Reid and Eric Bieniemy dialed Gordon's number in the red-zone. Patrick Mahomes flicked a quick screen pa s to Gordon from the 1-yard line. Gordon caught it and was easily able to score behind a couple of blocks.

    That marked Gordon's first touchdown with the Chiefs and his first Tony Phillips Jersey touchdown since Week 1 of the 2019 season. That came in the Patriots' 33-3 win over the Steelers during which Matt Olson Jersey Gordon caught three pa ses for 73 yards and the score.

    MORE:

    Since then, Gordon hadplayed in 18 scorele s games with the Patriots, Seahawks and Chiefs. He has racked up 26 catches for 371 yards good for 1.4 catches and 20.6 yards per game. He has also mi sed 22 games in that span as a result of being either inactive or suspended by the NFL for violating the league'ssubstance-abuse Mike Fiers Jersey policy.

    But now, Gordon's drought is over. Whether he will continue to get red-zone targets remains to be seen, but AndyReid is one of the NFL's most creative red-zone play-callers. So, he may have a couple of ideas in mind for the Yusmeiro Petit Jersey 6-3 receiver.

    NFL PLAYOFF PICTURE:

    And we'll see if the Chiefs find a way to get Gordon more involved during their blowout against the Raiders. They are winning 35-3 at halftime.
