Former New England Patriots wide receiver Josh Gordon has been claimed off waivers by the Seattle Seahawks on Friday afternoon.
Gordon was a starter in New England until he suffered a knee injury, which led to the team placing him on season-ending injured reserve. But it later came out that Gordon wasn't seriously hurt and was ready to play just a week later. New England then released Gordon off of IR, allowing any team to claim him, which the Seahawks did. It's a very confusing situation, but Gordon will be headed to Seattle, possibly to play right away.
In six games this season, Gordon has 20 catches for 287 yards and a touchdown.
