​During​ ​a​ ​recent​ ​mini-documentary,​ ​former​ ​troubled​ ​Baylor star​ ​WR​ ​Josh​ ​Gordon​ ​claimed​ ​an​ ​assistant​ ​coach​ ​helped​ ​him​ ​pass​ ​drug​ ​test​ ​to​ ​play​ ​football.

The​ ​documentary​ ​can​ ​be​ ​found​ ​here.

Gordon,​ ​who​ ​attended​ ​Baylor from​ ​2009-2011,​ ​admitted​ ​to​ ​using​ ​codeine,​ marijuana,​ ​Xanax,​ ​and​ ​cocaine.​ ​Gordon​ ​claimed​ ​that​ ​he failed​ ​the​ ​drug​ ​test​ ​at​ ​Baylor​ ​after​ ​running​ ​out​ ​of​ ​bottles​ ​of​ ​detox​ ​issued​ ​by​ ​the​ ​coach.

Josh​ ​Gordon​ ​recently​ ​finished​ ​a​ ​90​ ​day​ ​stent​ ​in​ ​a​ ​rehabilitation​ ​center,​ ​after​ ​being​ ​dismissed​ ​by the​ ​Cleveland​ ​Browns​ ​for​ ​repeated​ ​failed​ ​drug​ ​tests

“I​ ​had​ ​the​ ​desire​ ​to​ ​get​ ​help,​ ​invest​ ​myself 100​ ​percent​ ​into​ ​whatever​ ​was​ ​going​ ​to​ ​help​ ​save​ ​my​ ​life.​ ​It​ ​never​ ​really​ ​set​ ​in​ ​the​ ​severity​ ​of​ ​if you​ ​fail​ ​a​ ​drug​ ​test,​ ​this​ ​is​ ​over.”​ ​Gordon​ ​said​ in the documentary, “You’re​ ​willing​ ​to​ ​throw​ ​away​ ​everything​ ​you​ ​ever worked​ ​hard​ ​for,​ ​everything​ ​you​ ​ever​ ​had​ ​out​ ​of​ ​life.”

Josh​ ​Gordon​ ​has​ ​been​ ​suspended​ ​43​ ​of​ ​the​ ​past​ ​48​ ​games​ ​by​ ​the​ ​Cleveland​ ​Browns,​ ​however he​ ​is​ ​still​ ​under​ ​contract​ ​with​ ​the​ ​team​ ​and​ ​could​ ​possibly​ ​become​ ​a​ ​restricted​ ​free​ ​agent​ ​in​ ​the future.
