Josh Gordon Has Eyebrow-Raising Quote About Antonio Brown Joining Patriots
By Parker White
New England Patriots wide receiver Josh Gordon has had plenty of off-the-field problems himself, but he was just reinstated after initially being suspended for his continued violation of the NFL's substance abuse policy.
Gordon has been humbled and the Patriots Way seems to have helped him in more ways than one. So, what does he think about the Antonio Brown signing?

"Antonio is Antonio," Gordon said. "He's going to have to figure out his own way, just like everybody else has."
Wow. That's pretty straightforward. If AB wants to thrive and be on this team, he has to figure out how to make that transition playing in New England. Gordon doesn't seem to have much sympathy for Brown and is ready for him to put everything in the past and get ready to work in Foxborough.

Gordon knows what it's like to be Brown, as he was the No. 1 wide receiver in Cleveland and led the league in receiving yards in 201.3 Well, he's not the top option in New England, but he's having just as good of a time.
If AB wants to thrive with the Patriots, he will need to figure it out just like everybody else. Nobody is going to hold his hand. It's all business playing in New England, and they have no problem letting you go if things don't pan out.
