It’s been well documented that I have battled substance abuse for quite some time. Unfortunately, I did not take the time to focus on a solution to my problem until this past year. I am eternally grateful for the constant support from the NFL, NFLPA and the Patriots organization. I also want to thank my family, friends and all the fans who supported me while I addressed this issue. Going forward, I will not be discussing the details of my past. I plan to focus on the present and getting better every day. I hope people will judge me on what I do now and in the future. I look forward to being a member of the Patriots once again this season and doing my part by contributing on and off the field.”Gordon is expected to be in the lineup against the Steelers on Sunday night for his first regular season action since Week 15 of last season.

"There's life. I'm glad that we could give people maybe three hours of a break of maybe not thinking about it all the time, and that's what sports does sometimes is it helps you to kind of heal. But it's over and people are going to celebrate and enjoy this, but reality still sets in for a lot of people."The shooting was felt by all Pittsburghers, and was close to the Steelers. Michele Rosenthal, the team's former community relations manager Chase Winovich Buffalo Bills Jersey , had two brothers, Cecil and David, killed in the attack."We love you Michelle and we're thinking about you," said Roethlisberger, who was not surprised to the city pull together.

"It was good that we got the win to try and uplift some spirits and vibes of everybody in our city. It's really a tragedy. Our city took a hit and our hearts are with all of the victims and their families. We still have those in mind."Rookie quarterback Baker Mayfield threw a pair of TD passes, but the Browns squandered some early scoring chances and remain winless in Pittsburgh since 2003.The loss will put further heat on embattled Browns coach Hue Jackson, who dropped to 3-36-1 in two-plus seasons. Cleveland has lost three straight since beating Baltimore in overtime."It's disheartening," Jackson said. "We've got work to do."Conner's first TD came after Steelers return man Ryan Switzer inexplicably allowed a free kick following a safety to roll free and the Browns recovered at Pittsburgh's 24-yard line.The Steelers then committed three penalties 鈥?roughing the passer, interference and holding 鈥?to give Cleveland a first down at the 1. On the next play, Mayfield avoided pressure and lofted his scoring pass to rookie Antonio Callaway Youth Chase Winovich Jersey , who caught it despite being held to pull the Browns within 16-12.But with the momentum in Cleveland's favor, Pittsburgh grabbed control of the game and in turn soothed some pain after Saturday's stunning shooting."We have a lot of healing to do," said defensive tackle Cameron Heyward.

I know everybody in this locker room cares so much for everybody that was involved in that and we're going to continue to care."Conner, who has filled in while Bell holds out in a contract dispute, ripped off runs of 30 and 16 yards and then broke several tackles on his scoring run.Roethlisberger's second TD pass with 10 seconds to go in the first half put the Steelers ahead 14-6, and left the Browns thinking about settling for Greg Joseph field goals and not getting touchdowns.Pittsburgh gambled by going on fourth-and-1 at the 4 on the previous play before Roethlisberger drilled his pass to Brown, who lined up wide and came back toward his QB to make the catch and step into the end zone. The score completed an 87-yard drive that ate up 7:12 and included the Steelers maintaining possession after Roethlisberger appeared to fumble before replay review showed his knee was down.The Steelers started slowly, failing to get a first down in the first quarter when they were outgained 119-16.But the Browns failed to score a touchdown on three trips inside the Pittsburgh 27-yard line Womens Chase Winovich Jersey , and after Joseph missed a 41-yard field-goal attempt that would have put Cleveland ahead 9-0, Pittsburgh pounced.Roethlisberger's pump fake fooled Browns rookie cornerback Denzel Ward, allowing Brown to get behind him down the left sideline, and Roethlisberger made an easy throw to his favorite target.MOVING UPRoethlisberger's second TD pass to Brown moved him past Hall of Famer Fran Tarkenton (342) on the career list.
