Josh Gordon is back. No more rumored pitch count. No more concerns about him being in game shape. Gordon returned in Week 12 with a whopping 16 targets. He caught half of them for 120 yards. Despite rumors of a limited snap count, Gordon was on the field for the majority of the offensive snaps Sunday.
Fantasy football start/sit, Week 13: Josh Gordon

Gordon will be 100 percent across the board as he looks to continue his successful return against the Buffalo Bills. Expect quarterback Brian Hoyer to look Gordon's way early and often.
Fantasy impact: Fantasy owners who scooped up Gordon earlier in the season saw their patience rewarded. While he didn't score, Gordon proved to be a huge asset both on the field and on fantasy rosters. He's clearly the team's most targeted player and arguably the most talented on the Browns' offense.
Just in time for the fantasy playoffs, Gordon owners can plug him in as a solid WR1 until he proves otherwise. He has incredible upside in PPR formats as well. Buffalo can be tough at home, but they have been average in limiting fantasy production to wide receivers. Gordon is simply an above-average talent who must be started.
