Cleveland Browns star wide receiver Josh Gordon's suspension would be reduced to 10 games if the NFL and NFL Players Association pass a new drug policy.

Gordon was initially suspended for the entire season.

His appeal was denied last month for violating the NFL substance-abuse policy.

Gordon has argued that he inhaled second-hand marijuana smoke.Gordon has a history of failed drug tests in college and in the NFL, including for marijuana and codeine.
