Seattle Seahawks’ wideout core just received a major boost. According to multiple reports, the Seahawks have re-signed former Pro Bowl WR Josh Gordon to a one-year deal.

Seahawks still haven’t made the signing official, but the news was confirmed to ESPN’s Adam Schefter by Gordon’s agent David Canter.

Gordon is currently serving an indefinite suspension, but has applied for reinstatement earlier this year and is reportedly on a good track to receive a green light for the 2020 NFL season. With that in mind, Seattle approached the 29-year-old WR earlier this week and got the deal done.

Gordon started six games in 2019 with the New England Patriots before being released midway through the season. He was claimed by the Seahawks and ended up with seven receptions for 139 yards in a limited amount of snaps.

Despite the small size sample, the Seahawks were interested in a reunion with Gordon, with the team’s head coach Pete Carroll telling reporters last month that the veteran “fit in really well” with the rest of the roster. Carroll also stated that the organization was “very open” to bringing him back.

Seahawks already have Tyler Lockett and DK Metcalf locked in as starters, but Josh Gordon has a good chance of landing the No.3 on the depth chart if game-ready. He will compete with offseason acquisitions Paul Richardson and Phillip Dorsett for the spot.

If wideout Josh Gordon manages to get a green light from the NFL to play in 2020, he already has a team that will welcome him with open hands. The Seattle Seahawks’ head coach Pete Carroll recently told ESPN that his team would be “very open” to Gordon’s return.

Gordon spent the second part of 2019 in Seattle, catching seven passes for 139 yards in five games he played with the team. However, the 29-year-old wideout didn’t get to finish the season with Seahawks, as he was suspended indefinitely for violating the league’s policies.

Gordon applied for reinstatement last month, and if the league allows him to play again, Carroll would love to have him on his team.

“It’s not in our hands,” said Carroll. “Josh did a really good job with us last year. He fit in really well. He was part of this team by the way we opened and embraced his coming to us but also by the way he adapted. So we are very open to that thought, and we’ll see what happens. I don’t know. I can’t tell you what’s going to happen on that.”

The last year’s suspension was the fifth for Gordon in the last eight years. This is the reason why the NFL might not be so favorable towards his situation and could potentially keep him on the sidelines for the rest of the year. If that doesn’t happen, however, Seahawks might get a scary weapon as they attempt to return to Super Bowl.

Veteran wideout Josh Gordon in set on playing in 2020. According to ESPN, Gordon is currently working with the league to have his indefinite suspension lifted.

Gordon was suspended back in December after it was found that the 28-year-old WR violated the league’s policy on performance-enhancing drugs and substance abuse. This was the fifth time that NFL handed Gordon a suspension for similar violations and his sixth overall.

Reportedly, Gordon will now have to prove that he is abiding by the league’s rules and is making progress off the field. The NFL commissioner Roger Goodell will personally oversee the player’s reinstatement case.

Josh Gordon started the last season with New England Patriots, after his most recent suspension, which he earned in December 2018, was lifted. Gordon had a great Week 1, catching three passes for 73 yards and one touchdown, but his time on the field progressively went down after that.

Pats ended up releasing Gordon in late October, clearing the way for Seattle Seahawks to pick him up off waivers. He eventually caught seven passes for 139 yards before NFL suspended him.

If Gordon manages to find his way back into the league once again, he will be a free agent for the first time in his career. However, it appears that he won’t be doing a lot of interviews with other NFL teams as he already has his mind set on returning to Seattle.
