Facing indefinite suspension from the league for another substance abuse policy violation apparently.

I don't understand how gordon can keep getting chances yet Blackmon cannot come back.

New England is finished.

Hopefully Gordon is not.

Sad story.

Don't think Blackmon wanted to come back.
As far as I heard, he got in trouble once more while suspended and never applied for reinstatement.

I believe Gordon attended rehab facilities.

Blackmon basically walked away, and did not look back.

For Gordon's sake, I hope he gets things figured out. Maybe that involves life without football. Sounds like he's gonna have some time to sort that question out.

Blackmon wanted no part of coming back at all.
