Josh Gordon has experienced another setback in his recovery from substance abuse, according to a source.

The news comes as the wide receiver was preparing to return to the field for the first time since he was indefinitely suspended by the NFL last December.

Gordon and the Seattle Seahawks were notified Tuesday that the NFL determined the receiver had not satisfied the terms of his conditional reinstatement. That makes him ineligible to practice or play in games for the time being.

He had been set to begin practicing Wednesday with a chance to play in Week 16.
