Josh Gordon and Damarious Randall are friends now that they’re Browns teammates

They had beef last season, but now they’re on the same team and everything is fine.

Josh Gordon and Damarious Randall did not part as friends after the Browns’ overtime loss to the Packers in Week 14 of the 2017 season. But now that Randall has joined Gordon on the Browns’ roster, it’s all good.

Randall, who was acquired by the Browns in the trade that sent second-year quarterback DeShone Kizer to Green Bay, tweeted a photo of himself and Gordon on Wednesday.

The Week 14 matchup was Gordon’s second game back after being reinstated from an indefinite suspension for multiple violations of the league’s substance abuse policy. Randall spoke to Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel after the game, and he was not complimentary about Gordon’s play.

“He had one catch,” Randall said. “Any more questions?”

Gordon had an answer for Randall.

This is all water under the bridge now. The Browns tendered Gordon as an exclusive rights free agent, which means he can either play for the Browns or not play at all next year. And Randall is making the transition to safety with the Browns, according to Mary Kay Cabot of Cleveland.com, which is a move Randall is fine with.

If there’s any beef between these two this season, it’ll be limited to the practice field.
