The Facts:
Already in trouble with the National Football League for a reported failed drug test, Gordon was issued a speeding ticket over the Memorial Day holiday weekend in Strongsville. According to the citation, Gordon's 2014 grey Mercedes-Benz SUV was clocked going 74 miles an hour in a 60-mile-per-hour zone. In addition to his speeding ticket, Gordon's passenger was issued a citation for possession of marijuana in an amount under 200 grams during the traffic stop.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Gordon is summoned to appear in court on Wednesday, June 4 to dispute the citation."We are gathering information regarding the situation," Browns general manager Ray Farmer said in a statement released by the team. "We will not have any further comment until the appropriate time. ..." The marijuana was found in a blue bag with identification, and Gordon's passenger admitted it was theirs on the scene. Gordon is
subject to an indefinite suspension for a failed drug test, according to a report by ESPN. This latest issue won't necessarily count against Gordon, but it can't possibly help. Fantasy football owners drafting in advance of commissioner Roger Goodell's ruling on the suspension are taking a risk.
