Josh Gordon was acquired by the New England Patriots a few weeks back after a shaky start to the season with the Cleveland Browns. The move shocked quite a few fans in Cleveland, but it was a much-needed change of scenery for Gordon. His time in Cleveland had some major ups and downs and a fresh start was exactly what the doctor ordered.
According to his latest Instagram post, Gordon seems to be more than ready for a fresh start with the Patriots.

Gordon has made a massive impact for the Patriots already in limited opportunity. He may not be targeted 10 times a game, but when he is he makes the most of it. That was made clear last week against the Indianapolis Colts on a huge touchdown reception against two Colts defenders.

Tom Brady has welcomed Gordon with open arms and could not be more excited for the future with his new weapon. New England has an incredibly high-powered offense, one of the best since the days of Randy Moss.
In addition to Gordon, the Patriots have Julian Edelman and Rob Gronkowski to add star power. They also have wide receiver Phillip Dorsett, who has been playing impressive football this season.
New England is once again considered to be one of the top contenders in the AFC. They will have to deal with the Kansas City Chiefs and Jacksonville Jaguars, but their offense should hold its own.
Expect to see Gordon continue to create more of a role for himself as the season moves forward. Gordon is a legitimate star when he's on the field and Brady will get the most out of him.
