I think that to assume JG's issue is only marijuana is misinformed. Evidence previously published suggests he also has problems with alcohol and Xanax. If it truly were only about marijuana it would be simpler t treat and solve.
We are all buge footbal fans on this site and of course we want to see JG back in a Pats uniform hauling in darts from TB.
But I think we can agree that what is right is to do what is best for Josh. I would hope and expect that the Patriots have consulted an addiction specialist to determine if bringing JG back will help him or hurt him on the road to recovery.
As others have pointed out, since they re-signed him, It is likely that an addiction specialist has told teh Pats thta he might be OK if he returns and gets lots of suppport.
Hopefully Goodell's decision is NOT based on punishment but what is best for JG.
I've heard about him having a drinking problem but the Xanax is new to me. If that's the case it's very serious, especially when he's also drinking. People younger than me are dying left and right to benzos.
