TAMPA, Fla. -- Josh Gordon showed why the Cleveland Browns are so happy to have him back on the field.The talented receiver with a history of suspensions for drug violations caught everything thrown his way in his preseason debut Friday night, scoring on a 43-yard reception and also hauling in another pass from Robert Griffin III for a 44-yard gain that led to a first quarter field goal in a 30-13 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.It feels great, said the third-year pro, a former college teammate of RG III. I feel really good to be out there with my teammates, my brothers. It was uplifting.Jameis Winston threw for 259 yards and two touchdowns in one half of work for the Bucs, who achieved an objective of starting faster on offense than they did the previous two weeks.Griffin completed 8 of 14 passes for 119 yards, one TD and no interceptions before being replaced by Josh McCown at the start of the third quarter. Gordon was only targeted twice and finished with 87 yards receiving, both his catches coming when he beat cornerback Brent Grimes, one of Tampa Bays key offseason acquisitions.Gordon, whose preseason debut was delayed by a quadriceps injury, hadnt played since December 2014. He was suspended all of last season for violating the NFLs policy on substance abuse, and wont be eligible for the first four games of this regular season.I played with Josh before. Its just good to see him out there making plays, getting an opportunity to get back in the league, Griffin said. Were looking forward to him making the most of that. Im really excited for him.A Pro Bowl selection in 2013 when he had 87 catches for 1,646 yards and nine TDs, Gordon has been the subject of trade speculation during training camp. Although the Browns have said theyre not interested in moving him, and Gordon has said he wants to remain in Cleveland, club executive Sashi Brown said Thursday that like any player, there is a price for the 25-year-old receiver, who has been suspended for 27 of the last 32 games.The NFL Network reported Friday that price is a second-rounder and more.Teams watching tape of him against the Bucs can understand why. The 6-foot-3, 225-pound receiver ran past Grimes on his first catch, then made a nice adjustment on the ball to gain the inside position to make his TD catch as he crossed the goal line.He made a tremendous play. It was good just to get him out there in a game, Browns coach Hue Jackson said. He did some good things. There are some things well continue to improve on with him, but I thought it was a good start for him.BIG PLAY DUOTampa Bays Mike Evans had five receptions for 115 yards, including a 34-yard TD from Winston, who completed 16 of 25 passes in what likely was his final tuneup for the regular season.POOR PROTECTIONGriffin was sacked five times. Cleveland yielded three more sacks in the second half.ROOKIE WATCHBrowns: First-round draft pick WR Corey Coleman played after sitting out the first preseason games with a sore hamstring. He was targeted, once on a deep throw, but did not have a reception. He also returned two punts for 10 yards.Buccaneers: Struggling K Roberto Aguayo rebounded from missing three kicks in the first two weeks of the preseason, booting field goals of 48, 21 and 27 yards and making all three of his extra points. The second-round draft pick missed an extra point at Philadelphia two weeks ago, then failed to convert a pair of field goals against Jacksonville. He had a rough week in practice, too, missing two field goals and getting booed by fans attending a Browns-Bucs joint practice.I had to focus, lock in and do what I used to do at Florida State, Aguayo said. On the professional level, you can make 30 kicks in a row, miss one and the one miss is all theyre going to talk about. Im glad I went out and did my job. Im very happy to help the team.POSITION BATTLESBrowns: CB Jamar Taylor, who has replaced Tramon Williams as a starter, got spun around in coverage on Evans TD catch.Buccaneers: LG Josh Allen and RG Evan Smith filled in for starters Kevin Pamphile and Ali Marpet, who did not dress.NEW LOOKThe Buccaneers unveiled six new video boards with a total display area of 28,416 square feet, which the team says is the third largest in the NFL.

LOS ANGELES -- A judge on Thursday ordered lawyers handling a rape lawsuit against Knicks guard Derrick Rose to temporarily stop talking to reporters, faulting attorneys for actions that have raised pretrial publicity about one of the NBAs stars.U.S. District Judge Michael W. Fitzgerald said Thursday he was inclined to issue a longer gag order in light of pretrial publicity about the case, which has included interviews with Roses accuser and her attorneys allowing a letter confirming a police investigation of her rape allegations to become public.Fitzgerald told the womans attorney, Waukeen McCoy, that his teams filing of the letter in the public court docket was borderline unethical. He also said legal filings from Roses attorney, Mark Baute, were tailored for the press and not to secure favorable rulings for Rose.Rose is being sued by a 30-year-old woman who accuses him and two of his friends of gang raping her in her apartment in 2013. The woman, identified in court filings only as Jane Doe, dated Rose for two years before the alleged rape.Rose and his friends contend they had consensual sex with the woman, who has said she was unconscious after a night of drinking.Shhe is seeking millions from Rose, who is beginning his first year with the Knicks after playing seven seasons for his hometown Chicago Bulls.dddddddddddditzgerald accused the womans attorneys of using the press to put pressure on the Knicks and team President Phil Jackson, Roses sponsors and force the guard to settle the case. Its perfectly obvious, he said.The judge said he was issuing the gag order after taking the unusual step of reviewing news stories written about the case in recent weeks. Earlier this month, The Associated Press published a story after a lengthy interview with the woman, and she subsequently spoke to several other media outlets.We dont care about a settlement in this case, McCoy said, despite previous statements by his client that she wanted to settle the case before trial so she could preserve her anonymity. He said most of the stories had been in national media outlets and had not tainted the jury.When Baute told Fitzgerald his ruling was fantastic, the judge bristled.Im really fed up with both of you, Fitzgerald said.
