Description: Cleveland receiver Josh Gordon injured his ankle in the second quarter of Sunday's game against Pittsburgh and will not return.
Insight: He'll end the season with 805 receiving yards, second-most among NFL rookies (Justin Blackmon has 857 and counting), though he could be passed by T.Y. Hilton, who has 791 and is still playing Sunday.

Description: Browns rookie wide receiver Josh Gordon caught eight passes on 12 targets for 86 yards Sunday against the Chiefs.
Insight: Gordon has emerged as Brandon Weeden's No. 1 weapon in the passing game. The rookie has hauled in 35 catches for 639 yards and five touchdowns over the last nine games and has a favorable matchup against Washington in Week 15.

Description: Browns rookie wide receiver Josh Gordon came down with another touchdown on Sunday, his fourth in his last three games.
Insight: Gordon only caught two of the 10 passes Brandon Weeden threw to him and finished with 59 yards, way down from the 99 he racked up a week earlier against Cincinnati. Still, his knack for scoring touchdowns and Cleveland's complete lack of other options in the receiving game make Gordon a useful fantasy option.

Description: According to the Akron Beacon Journal, Browns coach Pat Shurmur said rookie receiver Josh Gordon will still have a prominent role in the offense in Week 7 even though Mohamed Massaquoi and Travis Benjamin could return from injuries this week.
Insight: As he should. The Browns have been desperate for playmakers on the outside since Braylon Edwards was traded. Greg Little has dropped too many balls to be that guy but Gordon has developed chemistry downfield with fellow rookie Brandon Weeden. Consider Gordon a WR3 this week in deeper leagues with six teams on a bye and Cleveland going up against the Indianapolis Colts.

Description: Browns receiver Josh Gordon caught three passes for 99 yards and a touchdown Sunday in a win versus Cincinnati.
Insight: The rookie has three touchdowns in his last two games. Gordon has gotten more playing time recently because of injuries to Travis Benjamin and Mohamed Massaquoi.

Description: Cleveland Browns rookie receiver Josh Gordon started opposite Greg Little last night with Mohamed Massaquoi sidelined by a concussion. He had two receptions for 38 yards, but was up and down as rookies frequently are.
Insight: Gordon appears to be in line for the No. 3 receiver spot. The former Baylor wideout caught 42 balls for 714 yards and seven scores in 2010, but was dismissed from the team in 2011 due to off-field issues.

Description: The Cleveland Browns selected former Baylor receiver Josh Gordon in the second round of the supplemental draft Thursday.
Insight: Gordon ran a 4.52 40-yard dash at his pro day Tuesday. The receiver caught 42 balls for 714 yards and seven scores in 2010 but was dismissed from the team in 2011 due to off-field issues. Cleveland doesn't have much depth at receiver after Greg Little so there's a chance Gordon could make an impact this season, but it's a long shot.
