It’s funny how the tone a franchise uses can change once a suspended player is reinstated, and of use to that organization.
After saying that they wouldn’t cater to Josh Gordon, nor force feed him the ball, the Cleveland Browns are singing a different tune.
Browns head coach Mike Pettine has declared Gordon “maybe a little ahead of where we expected” in his preparation for his 2014 debut Sunday in Atlanta.
#Browns Pettine said WR Josh Gordon little sore today after 1st practice. Will get more reps today."Maybe little ahead of where we expected"

This comes on the heel of Gordon saying he wanted to “tear the league up.”
I think you’ll see Cleveland force Gordon the ball right away to establish some confidence.
