Josh Gordon could apply for NFL reinstatement in May

There is still potential for deep threat wide receiver, Josh Gordon, to make a return to the NFL.

The 27-year-old was suspended indefinitely in December for multiple drug policy violations, but since then, has been receiving treatment in Gainesville, Fla. As long as he keeps up with his treatment plan, Gordon could apply for reinstatement in May, according to Tom Pelissero of NFL Network.

The suspensions of #Patriots WR Josh Gordon and #Raiders WR Martavis Bryant are indefinite, so there’s no firm date on which they can apply for reinstatement. But if they follow their treatment plans, expect the NFLPA to lay groundwork starting in May, per sources.

With some help from the New England Patriots, the NFL and the NFLPA, we could possibly see Gordon make his way back onto the field in the future.
