Josh Gordon retiring for mental health reasons?

[Brax]

Bleacher Report posted a letter to NE from Josh saying hes stepping away..

thanks appreciated, check just a short while ago and found a few article on it, thanks and merry Christmas.

ODD im betting he relapsed and stepping away to avoid embarrassment.. They are in the middle of what his first playoff games ahead and hes playing pretty well and just says goodbye..

Now we know why he went for 5th vs a 1st for Coop..unstable..

Dang what a waste of great talent.....

If only we were smart enough to get Gordon!!!!!

"this franchise is trash!!!!"

*puts a Dez in a Saints jersey picture as avatar*

 

[Maverick84]

Trust me, there were some fans/posters wanted him over Cooper.

lot of people lookin foolish during how that whole period of time went down

even got fools on here saying they hoped the Saints would whoop the Cowboys man

lots of trash posters still walkin around with **** on their face

He made himself about 6 million. That should buy some weed.

 

[Bleedblue1111]

yeah it's legal in how many states?

Everywhere but Texas?

I'm sure the state of Texas will be right there with them.

Lmao "next fix". You're acting as if weed is like crack or meth. The guy is obviously a complete moron for not staying clean but weed doesnt turn people into crackheads.

His problem is he doesn't want to work and he really doesn't have to. He has made enough money to sustain him for the rest of his life if he doesn't go crazy.

But but we could’ve had him for a 6th instead of giving up a premium pick for Cooper!!! That idiot jerrah Jones!

I love when we have morality arguments over something we have no information about.

First M Bryant
Then J Gordon

Next up RGregory

All had relapses this summer and all were allowed to play on appeal.... RGregory will be suspended shortly...... I guarantee

 

[Seven]

Let the bum go enjoy his weed. The NFL wont miss him. When he is out of funds he will be begging for another temp gig just to get his next fix.

You don't need a "fix" using weed..................

Martavis Bryant has company now. Oakland gave up a 3rd round pick for even less production than Gordon in 2018. Martavis Bryant even got cut and no team claimed him and went back to the Raiders only to get suspended again.

A 'real GM' traded a 3rd round pick for Martavis Bryant. Only played a handful of games.
A 'real GM' traded Gordon for a 5th round pick (minus a 7th round pick which the Pats got. Basically a 6th round pick. Only played a handful of games.
A 'real GM' traded a 3rd round pick for Tate. No drug suspension. Only played a handful of games, and maybe a dozen plays per game.

And roughly 90% of football experts and fans thought Jerry was an idiot for giving a 1st round pick for Cooper.

Cowboys front office got roasted for trading a first for Cooper. While the Pats trading for Gordon and the Eagles for Tate was seen as "Steals." Now weeks later and Tate hasn't been super productive for Philly and Gordon has been better for the Patriots, but he is leaving football early.

And some wanted Gordon on this team. Indefinite suspension by the NFL.... again. Nah, drugs don't change brain chemistry. Surprised that Bellichik/Kraft even took the gamble. Tells me something about the Patriots need at WR. Paint that anyway wanted and mental health is an issue but puuuuhlease, Gordon even gives mental health issues a black eye

If only we were smart enough to get Gordon!!!!!

We have Gregory, that same scenario may be about to play out here at some point!

I know people who "only" drink who act like bigger idiots than those who use drugs............................

 

[GhostOfPelluer]

We have Gregory, that same scenario may be about to play out here at some point!

Which is Exhibit 1A on why we were smart to stay out of the Gordon sweepstakes. We've had to learn from the school of hard knocks

 

[SlammedZero]

Remember when posters here were mad because Dallas didn't take a chance on him? Lol

 

[cowboyec]

with each passing day...the price we paid for Amari looks better and better.

Id rather have Amari than all that drama.

Amari Christmas

How did I know that this was going for turn into a weed debate? It isn’t about whether it’s legal or not or if you think it’s no big deal. It’s about his employer and the rules he has to follow to work for said employer.

NFL players get more chances than most people. Usually your arse is just fired. Guy has a problem.

Because self-righteous potheads want to push their agenda whenever they can...

Look dude cant smoke weed and play in the NFL currently..... the NFL pays A LOT of money that can give you generational wealth and allow you to retire before the age of 40 and be set for life....

Not many jobs you can work 8 years and be done and retired with working for good

Cry me a river
