You are making a wild assumption that his JOB is or has been a support structure. For starters, if he is relying on an NFL team to be his support- he is going to fall. Why? Becuase that team can cut him at the first injury. His support structure needs to be outside of his employer.
Also, being kept out of team facilities does not mean the league's substance abuse program is not also available to him. It is, has been, and will continue to be. Now THERE is where he can find actual support. If he wants it. Again, please stop with the crocodile tears because a repeat offender for different violations has been suspended instead of fired. When Gordon wants help, help is available. He had over 2 years to find that support in Berea and yet he kept sliding. I think it is obvious he needs more than just being in the practice facility.
