The Tennessee Titans desperately needed to make improvements to their wide receivers room ahead of the 2022 season. On Thursday, the team brought in some potential help, signing wide receiver Josh Gordon to the practice squad.
Gordon, who was recently cut by the Kansas City Chiefs, met with the Titans on Wednesday, and it apparently went well enough that Tennessee is taking a look at the troubled wideout.
The 31-year-old once looked like he’d become a superstar after leading the NFL in receiving yards in 2013, but it has been all downhill since then.
Gordon has run into several off-the-field issues, leading to six suspensions overall, five of which pertained to substance abuse issues, per ESPN.
Excited to kickoff this chapter of my career w/ the @Titans

But Gordon is getting yet his latest chance to right the ship in Nashville, and he has a good shot to earn a roster spot with the terrible depth situation the Titans have at wide receiver right now.
Here’s how Twitter reacted to the move.
