Let go by Titans
Gordon was cut from the Titans' practice squad Monday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Gordon will look for another opportunity elsewhere after being let go by the Titans. While with the team, the wide receiver was elevated to the active roster twice, failing to reel in his only target while playing 22 offensive snaps. Gordon's next chance will likely be with another practice unit.

Back to practice squad
Gordon reverted to the Titans' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.
Analysis: Gordon saw six snaps on offense, but he failed to tally any stats. This was the second consecutive week that Gordon was elevated to the active roster, which leaves him with one more opportunity for a promotion before having to be signed to the 53-man roster.

Will be active vs. Las Vegas
Tennessee elevated Gordon from its practice squad Saturday for Week 3, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: It will be the second consecutive week Gordon is active for the Titans, but he saw just one target in Week 2. After Sunday's game versus the Raiders, he will only be eligible for one more elevation from the practice squad before he would have to be signed to the team's active roster in order to play.

Returns to practice squad
Gordon reverted to the Titans' practice squad Tuesday, per the NFL's official transaction log.
Analysis: Gordon signed to the Titans' practice squad Sept. 1 after he was a casualty of the Chiefs' final roster cuts. He made his debut with the team in Monday's loss to the Bills, but he failed to make an impact on the stat sheet. In his 16 offensive snaps, Gordon saw one target, which he was unable to haul in.

Will make Titans debut Monday
Gordon will be elevated from Tennessee's practice squad for Monday's game against the Bills, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Gordon will make his Titans debut Monday. The veteran wide receiver failed to make the Chiefs' roster in training camp, but Gordon is hoping to prove that he still can contribute at the NFL level. If he performs well against the stout Buffalo secondary, Gordon could earn a permanent spot on Tennessee's roster.

Headed to Tennessee
The Titans signed Gordon to the practice squad Thursday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Gordon was released by the Chiefs on Tuesday after he failed to secure a spot on the team's final 53-man roster this preseason. The 31-year-old caught five passes for 32 yards and one score last year, so it's likely the aging wideout will slot into a depth role should he manage to make his way onto Tennessee's active roster at any point this regular season.

Cut by Chiefs
The Chiefs are releasing Gordon, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Suspensions typically derailed Gordon in the past, but at this point the 31-year-old might just not be quick enough to warrant playing time and a roster spot. The Chiefs will go with younger players for depth spots at wide receiver.

Returns to field
Gordon (undisclosed) was practicing with the team Sunday, Jesse Newell of the Kansas City Star reports.
Analysis: Gordon left a June 15 minicamp practice early, but an update on his status was previously unavailable. The 31-year-old receiver is looking to carve out a bigger role for himself this season with the departure of Tyreek Hill, Demarcus Robinson and Byron Pringle, but the additions of JuJu Smith-Schuster, Marquez Valdes-Scantling and Skyy Moore will likely leave Gordon in the same position on the wide receiver depth chart as last year.

Leaves practice with trainer
Gordon left Wednesday's minicamp practice early due to an undisclosed injury, Adam Teicher of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Gordon re-signed with the Chiefs this offseason on a reserve/future contract after he initially joined Kansas City's practice squad in late September. In his first year with Kansas City, he caught just five of 14 targets for 32 yards and a touchdown across 12 appearances. However, if healthy, Gordon will have an opportunity to carve out a bigger role in 2022 following the offseason trade of Tyreek Hill to Miami.

Sticking with Kansas City
Kansas City signed Gordon to a reserve/future contract Wednesday, Field Yates of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Gordon joined Kansas City's practice squad in late September after being reinstated from his indefinite suspension, and he spent most of the season on the active roster. However, he secured just five of 14 targets for 32 yards and a touchdown across 12 regular-season appearances. The 30-year-old will attempt to carve out a larger role in the system during the offseason.

Joins Kansas City's practice squad
Gordon signed with Kansas City's practice squad Wednesday, Aaron Wilson of ProFootballNetwork.com reports.
Analysis: After being waived by the Chiefs on Monday, Gordon was expected to remain with the organization's practice squad upon clearing waivers. With that having now come to pass, Gordon provides Kansas City with added wideout depth ahead of Sunday's AFC Championship game against the Bengals. In 12 regular-season appearances, the 30-year-old caught five passes for 32 yards and a touchdown on 14 targets.

Goes unclaimed on waivers
Gordon cleared waivers Tuesday, and Kansas City is expected to sign him to the practice squad, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Since joining the team's active roster in early October, Gordon has been unable to earn much of a role in the receiving corps, topping out at a 43 percent snap share in Week 10, missing Week 15 due to a stint on the reserve/COVID-19 list and being inactive for both playoff games to date. Once he's officially back on the practice squad, he'll vie with Daurice Fountain for elevation for as long as Kansas City remains alive in the postseason.

Cut by Kansas City
The Chiefs waived Gordon on Monday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Kansas City's decision to cut Gordon doesn't come out of nowhere; the 30-year-old wideout had been a healthy inactive for both of the Chiefs' first two postseason games. The team reportedly plans to sign Gordon to their practice squad, but he'll first have to go unclaimed off waivers by the NFL's other 31 teams. After signing a one-year deal with Kansas City in early October, Gordon suited up in 12 regular-season contests and recorded five receptions for 32 yards and a touchdown on 14 targets.

Healthy scratch once again
Gordon (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's contest against the Bills, Adam Teicher of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Gordon played a minimal role for Kansas City during the regular season, and he'll be a healthy scratch for the second straight playoff game. His absence shouldn't significantly impact the Chiefs' offensive plans.

Inactive against Pittsburgh
Gordon (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's wild-card matchup against the Steelers, Matt Derrick of ChiefsDigest.com reports.
Analysis: Gordon played a minimal role for Kansas City during the regular season, and he'll be a healthy scratch to begin the playoffs. His absence shouldn't significantly impact the Chiefs' plans on offense.

Falls flat in 2021
Gordon didn't catch his lone target in the regular-season finale versus the Broncos on Saturday.
Analysis: Gordon was minutely used on offense after joining the Chiefs midseason, finishing out the campaign with only five catches for 32 yards and a touchdown on 14 targets. He's likely past the point in his career where we can expect a resurgence and he's set to become an unrestricted free agent again following the season.

Adss another catch to season tally
Gordon reeled in his only target for five yards Sunday versus the Bengals.
Analysis: Gordon hasn't seen a ton of action for the Chiefs overall, and has just five catches for 32 yards and a touchdown to his name since joining the Chiefs. The veteran wideout isn't what he once was, given his extended layoff from action, and it doesn't appear like he will be much of a receiving threat for the Chiefs down the stretch and into the playoffs.

Another silent day
Gordon was unable to corral any of his three targets during Sunday's game against the Steelers.
Analysis: On a positive note, Gordon did match his season-high mark for targets, but it came amidst just eight offensive snaps (12 percent) compared to the much larger snap counts he had posted over the previous six games. That being said, Gordon was also just returning from a COVID-19 absence, so it's possible he wasn't quite 100 percent for this one. He's unlikely to be much of a fantasy factor even once he's back to full strength.

Back at practice
Gordon (illness) returned to practice Wednesday after being activated from the reserve/COVID-19 list, Herbie Teope of The Kansas City Star reports.
Analysis: Gordon's return bolsters Kansas City's wideout depth ahead of Sunday's game against the Steelers. With Tyreek Hill on the reserve/COVID-19 list, Gordon, Byron Pringle, Demarcus Robinson and Mecole Hardman are candidates to get extra work Week 16 if Hill isn't cleared to suit up versus Pittsburgh.

Won't play Thursday
Gordon (illness) wasn't activated from the reserve/COVID-19 list ahead of Thursday's game against the Chargers, Nate Taylor of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Gordon tested positive for the virus Monday so it's not a major surprise he didn't clear the health and safety protocols on short week. He'll have some extra time to clear the protocols before the Dec. 26 matchup with the Steelers.

Tests positive for COVID-19
Gordon was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list Monday after testing positive for the virus, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Gordon caught two of three targets for nine yards and a touchdown, his first since 2019, during Sunday's win over the Raiders, but he's now landed on the reserve list. The 30-year-old will only have a few days to clear the health and safety protocols before Thursday's matchup with the Chargers.

Logs just 12 snaps
Gordon played just 12 offensive snaps and didn't receive a target Sunday against the Broncos.
Analysis: Coach Andy Reid indicated a few weeks back that Gordon should be more involved in the offense in the future, but we haven't seen that come to fruition up to this point. Gordon has just two catches to his name in the eight games he's played with the Chiefs and doesn't appear to be trending in the right direction as far as playing time goes, logging just 22 percent of the offensive snaps this week compared to 42 percent in the team's last game versus the Cowboys. Gordon is safe to leave on the…read more

Catches one pass Week 11
Gordon secured one of two targets for seven yards in Sunday's 19-9 win over the Cowboys.
Analysis: Gordon played 43 percent of the Chiefs' offensive snaps Sunday, matching his season-high rate from Week 10. The wideout's playing time has increased throughout the season, but it hasn't translated into much fantasy production. Gordon will look to get more involved in Kansas City's passing attack following the team's Week 12 bye.

To be more involved
Coach Andy Reid indicated Monday that he's expressed to Gordon that it's only a matter of time before the wideout is a productive member of the offense, Adam Teicher of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Reid also suggested that Gordon needs to remain patient but that his opportunities are supposedly on the way. Gordon did log a season-high 32 snaps against the Raiders on Sunday, but he has just one catch to his name in the six weeks since joining Kansas City and has been targeted just four total times. Until we begin to see a bit more in the way of looks his direction, Gordon can safely remain on the waiver wire in most formats and a stash, at most, in some deep formats.

Fails to reel in lone target
Gordon couldn't haul in his only target Monday versus the Giants.
Analysis: While Gordon didn't do much of anything offensively, it is encouraging that he saw a bump to a 40 percent offensive snap share after playing no more than 14 percent through his first three games. Even so, it's still probably best to wait for some form of production on his end before considering him for fantasy lineups and rosters.

Another silent week
Gordon failed to reel in his lone target Sunday versus the Titans.
Analysis: Gordon didn't see any real increase in his playing time in this one, logging just eight offensive snaps. Through three weeks, he hasn't played more than 11 offensive snaps in a game and has just two targets to his name. It's unclear at this point if he is still working to get the Chiefs' playbook down or if he's simply just a depth option moving forward, but Gordon is far from a viable fantasy option at this point.

Goes without target
Gordon didn't draw a target on any of his 11 snaps Sunday versus Washington.
Analysis: A report during the week suggested Gordon could be in line for more reps Sunday. While it was technically the case, the increase was just from eight to 11, hardly enough for him to do much from a fantasy perspective. It's unclear exactly how much Gordon has left in the tank at this point, so he's likely just a stash option in some deeper leagues at the moment.

May see more reps Sunday
Head coach Andy Reid revealed that Gordon was expected to see around 20 snaps in last week's loss to the Bills, but the wideout limited to eight in his team debut because the Chiefs had to run a hurry-up offense more often than expected, Pete Sweeney of ArrowheadPride.com reports.
Analysis: Assuming the Chiefs are able to follow a more normal game script Week 6 against Washington, Gordon may have more of a role in the offense than he did in his debut. Even if Gordon is able to double or triple up his snap count from Week 7, he's unlikely to see enough volume in the passing game to make a major fantasy impact.

Limited snaps in debut
Gordon reeled in his lone target for 11 yards Sunday night versus the Bills.
Analysis: Gordon played just eight offensive snaps, likely due to begin unfamiliar with the playbook but did manage to scratch out a reception in his debut with the team. Given the lack of production from other wide receivers on the roster, Gordon could stand a chance to carve out a consistent role on offense once he gets the playbook down.

Jumps to active roster
Kansas City signed Gordon off its practice squad Tuesday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Just days after the NFL reinstated him from an indefinite suspension, Gordon found a new home and after one week in K.C., he's already endeared himself to Patrick Mahomes, Andy Reid and company. Merely getting to work with Mahomes elevates the stock of most skill-position players, and if Gordon can tap into his downfield playmaking ability of yore, he could be an immediate hit on the fantasy scene, especially with the team needing a consistent third receiving option behind Tyreek Hill and…read more

Could be promoted next week
Gordon has impressed in workouts since joining the Chiefs' practice squad Monday and could be promoted to the 53-man roster ahead of the team's Week 5 game against the Bills, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: The 30-year-old wideout signed with Kansas City earlier in the week, immediately after the NFL fully reinstated him from the indefinite suspended he was handed last December. In addition to receiving praise from head coach Andy Reid for being in game shape, Gordon has flashed big-play ability in his initial practices and has picked up the offense quickly. If added to the roster, Gordon likely wouldn't fill a full-time starting role for Kansas City, but his size and downfield speed could help…read more

Bound for Kansas City
Gordon plans to sign with the Chiefs, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Gordon didn't take long to find a landing spot after being reinstated from indefinite suspension last Friday. The 30-year-old wide receiver could bring a spark to a Kansas City team that has gotten off to a surprisingly slow 1-2 start. It's fair to question how much Gordon has left in the tank, though. He last played in the NFL in 2019 and has just six touchdowns in 33 games since the 2014 season after finding the end zone 14 times in 30 appearances between the 2012 and 2013 campaigns.

Reinstated by NFL
The NFL reinstated Gordon from an indefinite suspension Friday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Gordon spent almost two years working his way back from violations of the league's policies on substance abuse and performance enhancing substances. He last suited up for the Seahawks in Week 15 of the 2019 campaign, and per terms of his reinstatement he'll be able to play as soon as Week 4 of this season. For his career, Gordon has been a big play waiting to happen, when available, averaging 17.2 yards per catch.

Awaiting reinstatement
Gordon (suspension) is awaiting final approval on reinstatement from commissioner Roger Goodell after the NFL Players' Association determined Tuesday that the receiver completed his league-monitored treatment program, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Since the NFL suspended him indefinitely in January on the heels of a setback in his recovery from substance abuse a month earlier, Gordon has apparently satisfied all the conditions of his program and is preparing to resume his career. Now 30 years old, Gordon hasn't appeared in the NFL since 2019, when he recorded 27 receptions for 426 yards and one touchdown in 11 games between stops in New England and Seattle.

Remains on exempt list
The NFL determined Tuesday that Gordon hasn't satisfied all the terms of his conditional reinstatement, and he'll revert to the commissioner's exempt list, Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times reports.
Analysis: Despite being activated Monday, it appears Gordon still has a few more hurdles to clear before he can return to game action. For the time being, Gordon can attend team meetings and participate in individual workouts, but he can't practice or play in games. With that in mind, his status is murky for Sunday's game against the Rams.

Rejoining team Monday
Gordon (suspension) has met the terms of his conditional reinstatement from the league and will rejoin the Seahawks for team activities Monday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: The NFL reinstated Gordon on Dec. 3, but he's only been able to take part in individual workouts and team meetings since that time. The wideout will be integrated into practices next week, and if the Seahawks are satisfied with his conditioning, the 29-year-old could make his 2020 debut Dec. 27 versus the Rams.

Staying ready for Week 16 debut
Head coach Pete Carroll said Wednesday that Gordon (suspension) has looked good in his recent workouts and remains on track to make his season debut when he's eligible to return from the Commissioner Exempt List in Week 16 versus the Rams, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports. "Josh's workouts are going great," Carroll said. "He's really fit, he feels really good. He feels like he's ready to jump on a practice field. He'll have all of this week, and then he'll be available to us next week."
Analysis: Gordon can't technically practice with the Seahawks until next week, but he's been able to take part in individual workouts and team meetings since the NFL reinstated him from his year-long suspension Dec. 3. The lack of on-field reps over the past year means Gordon likely won't be pressed into a major role over the Seahawks' final two regular-season games, as Carroll noted that the wideout still needs to regain full conditioning following the lengthy layoff. That said, Gordon's presence will…read more

Slated to return Week 16
While the NFL reinstated Gordon (suspension) on Thursday, he won't be eligible to play until the final two games of the season, Jay Glazer of Fox Sports reports.
Analysis: Gordon's most recent suspension will have spanned one year once he's able to return to action. Most of his 27-426-1 line from last season occurred as a member of the Patriots, but he did average 19.9 YPC on his seven receptions with the Seahawks. Once he's able to suit up -- likely Sunday, Dec. 27 against the Rams -- Gordon will serve as a deep threat alongside DK Metcalf and Tyler Lockett.

The NFL reinstated Gordon (suspension) on Thursday, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Before yet another suspension, Gordon fared well in stints with the Patriots and Seahawks last season, posting 27 catches for 426 yards and one touchdown on 47 targets. Among the receptions, he ripped off eight for more than 20 yards, so he'll add a deep threat to a receiving corps that also includes DK Metcalf and Tyler Lockett.

Analysis: The NFL banned Gordon indefinitely last December for violating the league's policy on performance-enhancing substances and substances of abuse, marking the sixth suspension of his career. Though Gordon applied for reinstatement July 17 and reached an agreement in early September to re-sign with Seattle, he's stuck in a holding pattern while he waits for the league to approve his request to resume his career.

When available, he's expected to compete with Phillip Dorsett (foot) and David Moore for work behind top receivers Tyler Lockett and DK Metcalf, but time is running short for Gordon to receive the all-clear ahead of Sept. 13's season opener in Atlanta.

Signs with Seattle
Gordon (suspension) re-signed with the Seahawks on Thursday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Gordon is hoping to be reinstated from suspension before the start of the season, or at least early on in the year. He never really seized the No. 3 receiver role in Seattle last season, catching seven of 11 targets for 139 yards in five games before a violation of the NFL's substance-abuse policy led to another indefinite suspension. With Tyler Lockett and DK Metcalf locked in as full-time players, the 29-year-old Gordon will need to compete against Phillip Dorsett and David Moore for the…read more

Expecting update soon
Gordon (suspension) expects to have an update on his reinstatement to the NFL within the next month, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Gordon is an unrestricted free agent but may not draw any interest from teams until he learns more about his eligibility status for 2020. He submitted a letter of reinstatement June 17, and he reportedly has been working out and staying sober in the meantime.

Seeking return to NFL
Gordon submitted a letter of reinstatement Wednesday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Gordon was suspended indefinitely in December for violating the NFL's policy on performance-enhancing substances and substances of abuse. The ban is the sixth of his career. In the meantime, Gordon has been running routes to prepare for a return, but whether that happens remains to be seen.

Hopes for training camp return
Gordon (suspension) hopes to be reinstated by training camp, Ben Arthur of SeattlePI reports.
Analysis: Gordon is currently serving his sixth career suspension in the form of an indefinite ban for violating the league's performance-enhancing substances and substances of abuse policy Dec. 16. Currently a free agent, Gordon hauled in 27 passes for 426 yards and one score across 11 combined games with the Seahawks and Patriots in 2019, and he previously served as a key contributor in New England's aerial attack in 2018 while averaging 18.0 yards per catch. The 29-year-old still offers intriguing…read more

Intends to return in 2020
Gordon (suspension) is planning a return to the NFL in 2020, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Gordon was suspended indefinitely Dec. 16 for violating the league's performance-enhancing substances and substances of abuse policies. This was the sixth career suspension for Gordon, who is currently a free agent. Commissioner Roger Goodell will ensure Gordon makes steady progress away from the field before the league entertains reinstating him. The 29-year-old spent the 2019 season with both the Patriots and Seahawks, totaling 27 receptions for 426 yards and a touchdown in 11 games.

Suspended indefinitely
Gordon has been suspended indefinitely for violating the league's policy on performance-enhancing substances and substances of abuse, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM Radio reports.
Analysis: Considering Gordon's repeat offender status, he's likely done for the season. Gordon is coming off his best game with the Seahawks, hauling in a 58-yard pass in Sunday's 30-24 win over the Panthers. The 28-year-old receiver played six games for the Patriots and five for the Seahawks this season. The Seahawks likely will use a rotation to fill the No. 3 receiver role going forward, using Malik Turner, David Moore and Jaron Brown.

Catches deep ball Sunday
Gordon hauled in a 58-yard pass on his only target in Sunday's 30-24 win over the Panthers. He also threw an interception.
Analysis: Gordon continues to work as the No. 3 wideout behind Tyler Lockett and DK Metcalf, but he only played 25 of a possible 67 offensive snaps (37 percent). The 28-year-old Gordon managed to feature his field-stretching abilities, however, setting up Tyler Lockett for a touchdown a few plays later. Over five games with the Seahawks, Gordon has yet to surpass two receptions, but he'll look to break out in Week 16 against the Cardinals' league-worst passing defense (294.2 yards allowed per game).

Pulling away as No. 3 wideout
Gordon hauled in two of five targets for 34 yards in Sunday's 28-12 loss to the Rams.
Analysis: This was Gordon's best stat line since arriving in Seattle. While his numbers were nothing to write home about, it's intriguing that Gordon recorded 37 offensive snaps, establishing himself as the No. 3 wideout ahead of Malik Turner (15) and David Moore (14). Gordon's promotion was a matter of if, not when, and he seems to be comfortable with the playbook and Russell Wilson, who connected with him on a key fourth down in the fourth quarter. Gordon will look to break through in Week 15's matchup…read more

Catches one pass in win
Gordon caught his only target for a 10-yard gain during Monday's 37-30 win over Minnesota.
Analysis: Gordon broke over the middle for a third-down conversion during Seattle's second drive of the game Monday to set up a touchdown, but he wasn't targeted again. He hasn't shown a spark yet with four catches for 47 yards in three games with Seattle, keeping him off the fantasy radar. Sunday offers a tough matchup against the division-rival Rams and the league's 10th-ranked pass defense.

Shakes off ankle injury
Gordon (ankle) was a full participant in Friday's practice, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
Analysis: The Seahawks listed Gordon as a limited participant on Thursday's estimated practice report, but the wideout's ability to take all the reps during Friday's session paves the way for him to enter the Week 13 matchup with the Vikings minus a designation. Like Gordon, DK Metcalf (knee) was also able to upgrade to full participation Friday, leaving both players in line to potentially fill larger roles in the passing attack should top option Tyler Lockett (shin/illness) sit out the Monday night…read more

Tending to ankle issue
Gordon (ankle) is listed as a limited participant on Thursday's practice estimate, Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: In two games with the Seahawks, Gordon logged 37 percent of the offensive snaps Week 10 against the 49ers and 33 percent of those plays this past Sunday at Philadelphia. Such a workload hasn't lent itself to much production, as he's hauled in three of four targets for 37 yards. Now with an ankle injury in tow, Gordon's status should be monitored to get a sense of his availability for Monday's contest against the Vikings.

Minimal usage in win
Gordon caught one of three targets for 10 yards in Sunday's 17-9 win over the Eagles.
Analysis: Gordon now has three receptions over two games with the Seahawks, and each one was a third-down conversion. It was a slow day for Seattle's receivers overall, as Russell Wilson completed a season-low 13 passes with no receivers topping 38 yards. Gordon is still looking to find his game with Seattle, and he'll look to leverage another week of practice into increased production Week 13 against the Vikings.

Two big conversions in debut
Gordon hauled in both of his targets for 27 yards in Monday's 27-24 overtime win against the 49ers.
Analysis: Gordon's name wasn't called for most of the game, but he snagged a crucial third-down conversion for 13 yards late in the fourth quarter, setting up Jason Myers' go-ahead field goal. The 49ers were able to send the game to overtime, where Gordon caught a 14-yard pass on third down. As his knowledge of the playbook increases, his snap count and target share should rise with it. For now, it's clear why the Seahawks brought in Gordon, and his role could intensify after Seattle's bye week if Tyler…read more

Making debut with team
Gordon is listed as active Monday in San Francisco.
Analysis: Gordon was listed as a limited participant on the Seahawks' injury reports earlier in the week, but after practicing in full Saturday, he didn't have a designation for this contest. He'll thus make his debut the team, but the presence of Tyler Lockett and DK Metcalf hurts Gordon's prospects off the bat.

Not listed on injury report
Gordon (ankle) is not listed on the Seahawks' injury report heading into Monday's contest against the 49ers, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
Analysis: Head coach Pete Carroll wouldn't outright confirm Gordon would play Monday according to Brady Henderson of ESPN.com, but it certainly appears as if he's healthy enough to make his Seahawks debut. Considering Tyler Lockett (hip) also wasn't listed on the team's final injury report, the Seahawks likely won't force Gordon into action, but it wouldn't be a surprise to see the veteran wideout take the field at some point Monday.

Analysis: For the second straight session with his new squad, Gordon's reps were capped as he tends to an ankle injury. On Friday, both coach Pete Carroll and offensive coordinator Brian Schottenheimer touched on Gordon. While Carroll told KIRO Radio 97.3 that he's unsure whether the wide receiver will be available Monday in San Francisco, Schottenheimer noted Gordon is "moving around really good out there," per Curtis Crabtree of Sports Radio 950 KJR Seattle.

Status in limbo for Monday
Coach Pete Carroll didn't say whether Gordon (ankle) will be available Monday at San Francisco, Brady Henderson of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Speaking to the media Friday, Carroll said Gordon "looked pretty good," but the Seahawks will "take it all the way to Monday" as it pertains to his availability. After picking him up off waivers late last week, Gordon was limited at Thursday's practice due to an ankle injury, so health seemingly will play a role in the decision-making process. Because the team doesn't suit up until Monday night, managers will be taking a risk by including him in Week 10 lineups.

Tending to ankle issue
Gordon (ankle) was listed as limited on the Seahawks' injury report Thursday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
Analysis: Gordon spent the last few weeks of his Patriots tenure on the sideline due to knee and ankle injuries and even was on injured reserve for the final week before he was cut. In his first practice since the Seahawks claimed him off waivers, he's ditched the knee issue, but the ankle concern still is in tow. He'll look to get clearance for Monday's game at San Francisco as he attempts to get up to speed with a new playbook.

Ready to practice
Gordon is scheduled to practice Thursday, with coach Pete Carroll noting that the wide receiver shouldn't have much trouble learning the Seahawks' playbook, Brady Henderson of ESPN.com reports. "He's a smart football guy," Carroll said. "He's going to get it. It's not going to take him very long."
Analysis: The Seahawks are trying to prepare Gordon for Monday's game against the 49ers, though he'll likely have a part-time role if he's deemed ready to play. He was claimed off waivers last Friday and passed a physical at the beginning of this week. The knee injury he suffered with the Patriots doesn't seem to be an issue at this stage.

Passes physical
Gordon (knee) passed a physical for the Seahawks and is scheduled to practice this week, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: The Seahawks will evaluate Gordon in practice to see if he can play in a Week 10 game against the 49ers on Monday night (Nov. 11). The 28-year-old wideout was claimed off waivers from the Patriots on Friday, with the Seahawks presumably hoping he can take some of the snaps that have been going to Jaron Brown, David Moore and Malik Turner.

The Seahawks announced Friday that the team claimed Gordon (knee) off waivers from Patriots, John Boyle of the team's official site reports.
Analysis: Confirming what had been reported earlier in the day, Gordon will move on to the third organization of his career after the Patriots released the wideout from injured reserve Thursday. Gordon has been ruled out in advance of the Seahawks' game Sunday against the Buccaneers, but coach Pete Carroll noted that he would evaluate the wideout at practice next week before determining his status for the Nov. 11 game in San Francisco.

Analysis: The Seahawks ranked 28th in waiver priority, so it's quite possible they were the only team to put in a claim. Before waiving Gordon on Thursday, the Patriots placed him on injured reserve last week, though he reportedly expects to be healthy at some point in early-to-mid November.
