Josh Gordon failed another drug test


Cleveland Browns v Atlanta Falcons

Suspended Browns wide receiver Josh Gordon failed another league-administered drug test last month, Mike Garafolo of FOX Sports reported Monday.
Citing a source with knowledge of test results, the report said a sample collected from Gordon in early March tested positive for marijuana and dilute. Though the report said the amount of marijuana the test revealed was below the 35 nanograms per milliliter required for a positive test, the diluted sample is considered a positive test.
Gordon applied for reinstatement in February. He was suspended for at least a year in early 2015 after testing positive for alcohol, a violation of rules set forth by the NFL stemming from a previous suspension.
Garafolo’s report said NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell has yet to rule on Gordon’s request for reinstatement, which Gordon made in February. Though another failed test doesn’t necessarily mean Goodell will deny Gordon’s request, it certainly can’t help his case. This news also might explain why the NFL has not announced a decision on Gordon’s quest for reinstatement.
Gordon’s agent, Drew Rosenhaus, declined comment to Garafolo.
Earlier Monday, ESPN reported that Gordon has been living in Los Angeles with former teammate and noted maker of solid decisions Johnny Manziel.
Gordon led the NFL with 1,646 receiving yards in 2013 despite missing the season’s first two games due to an NFL suspension. He served a 10-game suspension to start 2014 and caught 24 passes for 303 yards in five games; he was suspended by the Browns for the season finale for a violation of team rules.

Jane the Virgin Season Finale Recap: The Wedding of Jane Gloriana Villanueva

Ivonne Coll as Alba, Gina Rodriquez as Jane, Andrea Navedo as Xo. If I could write this whole recap with emojis, there'd be several varieties of hearts, the running man, the dancing woman, and lots and lots of fires and heart-eyed faces. Those creepy dancing twin girls would also make an appearance. And there'd be a gun. My imaginary emoji recap is appealing because it's incredibly hard to come away from a blockbuster hour of television like "Chapter Forty-Four" and pull together coherent thoughts that aren't just "AHHH!" or "WHY would you get ICE for the DAMN CHAMPAGNE?!" or "OMG FACE OFF MASK!" or "Why isn't all of life just Jane and Rogelio doing that father/daughter dance forever?" But I'll give it a try. Jane the Virgin 's season finale is a narrative fireworks display, a shock-and-awe storytelling spectacular that short-circuits emotional processing centers with blazing confidence. It drops j...
