Josh Gordon Week 6 Outlook -

By Mike Tagliere (FantasyPros), Wed, Oct 10th 2018, 10:42am EDT

It's tough to say you should absolutely love Gordon considering he's played just 18 snaps in each of his two games with the Patriots, but the matchup this week makes it hard not to. He'd see a mixture of Orlando Scandrick and Steven Nelson in coverage, neither of which is six-feet-tall. You have to think Gordon earned some of Brady's trust last week when he simply threw the ball up into double coverage and watched Gordon swoop in to snag the touchdown. It's pointless to go into any detail because it's possible that he plays less than 20 snaps again, but knowing the upside, it's tough to sit him for any wide receiver who isn't a sure thing. I'd consider Gordon a high-risk/high-reward WR3 and one who I'd probably give the tie-breaker to in a tough call.
