It's been a wonderful 24 hours for the Cleveland Browns, but it looks like the honeymoon may be over.
Josh Gordon has reportedly been trying out for the Toronto Argonauts of the CFL during the off-season. This is not the first time Gordon has shown interest in playing for the franchise, as he missed the first 2 games of the 2013 season after an injury sustained in an Argonauts tryout. While CFL tryouts are legal for medical purposes in 21 American states, it is still strictly against NFL bylaws. It is unclear if Gordon suffers from a "severe medical condition" that would necessitate trying out for the Argonauts, but if the rumors are true, and he has indeed been caught trying to "get North" it would mean Gordon would get at least a one year contract with a CFL franchise.
It is unclear why Gordon isn't happy in Cleveland, as he was reportedly pleased with the team drafting Johnny Manziel. This just may be another case of the "grass being greener," similar to Aaron Hernandez who has been trying out for the Ravens since college.
