Bill Belichick: ‘No idea' about reports Josh Gordon would be disciplined

ORCHARD PARK — Josh Gordon didn’t deny that he’d been late. Instead, the answer he gave in response to reports he’d be disciplined for tardiness was more vague. 

“You know what, that’s going to be a question to ask coach about,” Gordon said. “As it relates to the game, I was available. That was a plus.”

Gordon’s availability for Monday night’s 25-6 win over the Bills was in question before it kicked off. NFL Media reported he’d be disciplined for showing up late before his team’s trip to Buffalo, missing the first quarter of action. 

Gordon was on the field to start the game and finished with four catches for 42 yards on six targets. Matched up with impressive second-year corner Tre’Davious White, open space was hard to come by at New Era Field.

He avoided questions deftly in his postgame press conference. 

“I’ve got to check on everything,” he said when asked again about the reports of his benching-that-never-was. “I’m not too sure about what’s out there myself. I couldn’t even give you an answer.”

Bill Belichick sounded a similar refrain. 

“You’d have to talk to whoever wrote that,” he said. “I have no idea.”

Tom Brady was asked about Gordon, his promptness, and his progress in the Patriots offense on WEEI’s Kirk and Callahan program Tuesday morning. He side-stepped the lateness portion of the question and instead praised Gordon for his production through the early part of his Patriots career. 

“It’s kind of a work in progress,” Brady said. “We gotta stay with it...have a lot of confidence in him. When I throw the ball to him, good things happen and he makes the play...I can’t say enough good things about him and what he’s done to help us.”
