Gordon hasn’t played since 2014 after a series of suspensions for violating the league’s substance abuse policy. Gordon’s business manager Michael Johnson says that the troubled wide receiver is living with him and “is in the best place mentally that he has been in dating back years before entering the NFL.”

Gordon has “taken the proper steps to treat his issues and has followed a very strict protocol that the league and our team here has laid out for him,” Johnson added.

Gordon was suspended for two games in 2013 for violating the substance abuse policy. He was then suspended by the league for ten games the following year for another violation, and the Browns suspended him for the season finale for missing a team walk-through.

The 25-year-old was then suspended for the entire 2015 season for another violation of the substance abuse policy. Last October, Gordon checked himself into a rehab facility in New Hampshire. He spent 30 days at that facility.

According to ESPN, Gordon was kicked off of football teams at the University of Utah and Baylor University for failing drug tests.

Late last season, the Browns indicated that they would move on from their relationship with Gordon.

In 2013, Gordon caught 87 passes, including nine touchdowns, for a league-best 1,646 yards. Since then, however, he has played just five games and caught 24 passes.
