    NFL upholds one-year suspension for Gordon. Not a surprise.

    Yep, now let's see if he comes back next year or spirals downward in his personal life the next 12 months and throws all his talent away.

    Was out of loop on this. Thought he was suspended a few months back. If the numbers they are showing are accurate, this seems excessive compared to other guys who messed up. League should allow teams to decide how they want to handle weed offenses.

    If Pacman Jones could make it back this guy can. Never know with drugs though. They are hard to quit

    He knew the league rules, pending DWI, failed drug test in college, and previous suspension for codeine didn't help his cause.

    He was but he appealed, which is why he was allowed to play in preseason. Just came down yesterday that he lost the appeal.

    He can't play in the CFL like Ricky Williams did back in the day with his drug suspension either.

    So NFL took 3 months to have case heard and now he has to sit for 365 days? Wonder if Irsay will get a year ban for his case.

    Because he appealed he is now going to miss the off-season next year, so if they do let him back in he will not be ready to play anyway.

    I dont think suspended players should be able to jump leagues though the suspension itself is bogus. Like if a European basketball player or soccer player could just jump leagues if suspended then he is barely being punished at all.

    Has anyone heard anything about him suing the NFL? could maybe have a judge issue an injunction based upon Ohio employment law. i guessing since i havent heard anything that maybe he is just going to take the suspension?
