Suspended wide receiver Josh Gordon has been reinstated in the NFL, reports ESPN.com.

The 30-year-old Gordon submitted his reinstatement letter to NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell in July.

Gordon has been suspended since December 2019 after violation of the league's performance-enhancing and substance abuse policies, the sixth time he has been banned by the league.

In December, the league conditionally reinstated Gordon just as the Seattle Seahawks had him set to practice with the team.

Gordon was originally selected by the Cleveland Browns in the 2012 supplemental draft.
