The Facts: We already know that Gordon won’t start for the Browns in their season opener against the Steelers, but the question of whether he will play at all has yet to be definitively answered. HC Hue Jackson said on Friday that Gordon will be back on the practice field as the Browns prepare to face the Steelers. Jackson said that Gordon should be “a little more than limited” in terms of his participation.
Diehards Line:
Gordon has been cleared to play by the league, but a hamstring tweak created some uncertainty about his readiness. Gordon was clearer when he said he expects to be ready for the first Sunday of action and now he’s set to take a step toward that goal on Monday. We'll watch for more.
