The NFL Players Association has filed a grievance against the Cleveland Browns for imposing a one-game suspension on troubled wide receiver Josh Gordon.

Gordon was suspended for the final game of the 2014 season for missing a special teams meeting. The suspension delays his ability to become a free agent.

The NFLPA, according to ESPN, will argue that missing that meeting should not have resulted in a one-game suspension.

If he wins the grievance, Gordon will receive credit for playing in six games in 2014 and be eligible for free agency after the 2016. If his grievance is denied, he will not be a free agent until after the 2017 season.

Gordon remains a member of the Cleveland Browns despite being suspended earlier this month for at least the upcoming year for another violation of the NFL’s substance-abuse policy.

He missed the first 10 games of the 2014 season because of a previous suspension. During his record-setting 2013 season in which he compiled 1,646 receiving yards and nine touchdowns, Gordon served yet another suspension.

In 2014, he had only 24 receptions in five games without scoring a touchdown.
