If you are extremely lucky you get to collect an NFL paycheck for 7 or 8 years...and then you can smoke all the weed you want and never work again in your life.

This. But maybe it is harder to get through those 7-8 years with pain and stress and what not. I don't know or think to know what a NFL player goes through so maybe some of them cope with that by smoking weed, which is probably the dumbest thing they could do. Like you said make your money and play as long as you can then smoke all the weed you want.

They smoke weed because they're idiots not because of pain.

I don't know how much pain and stress Gordon was going through during the off season. I'm guessing the only stress he was going through was him worrying about passing the drug test.

Well, yeah.

Smoke to get over your anxiety of getting caught smoking.

It all makes sense!

CLEVELAND -- The Cleveland Browns are aware Pro Bowl receiver Josh Gordon, facing a possible NFL suspension for another failed drug test, was ticketed for speeding last weekend. A passenger in his car was cited for marijuana possession.

Gordon is facing a season-long suspension after another failed drug test months ago, this time for marijuana, sources told ESPN's "Outside the Lines" earlier this month. Gordon was suspended two games last season for failing a drug test.

Gordon was pulled over for driving 74 mph in a 60 mph zone on May 25, WKYC-TV reported Friday. According to the report, the passenger in Gordon's Mercedes was issued a citation for possession of marijuana in an amount under 200 grams. The marijuana was found in a blue bag with identification. The passenger said the marijuana was not Gordon's.

Browns general manager Ray Farmer issued a statement regarding Gordon's latest issue.

"We are gathering information regarding the situation," Farmer said. "We will not have any further comment until the appropriate time."

Gordon's pending case is posted online on the Berea Municipal Court docket. It says Gordon showed proof of insurance when he was stopped and that he did not have any warrants. He is due to appear in court on June 4.

The traffic stop comes as the Browns are awaiting news whether Gordon will be available to play this season. The talented 23-year-old was suspended two games last season for failing a drug test and still led the league with 1,664 yards receiving.

Gordon has been practicing with the Browns as he awaits word from the league on the possible suspension. Gordon has declined to comment at the workouts that have been open to the media the past two weeks.

Last year, Gordon was convicted of two traffic offenses after pleading no contest in court. He was ticketed twice for speeding, once for driving 98 mph. He paid $296 in fines and court costs.

Former Browns coach Rob Chudzinski spoke to Gordon about his actions.

Information from The Associated Press was used in this report.
