It’s been the season of reinstating players for the NFL (save for Daryl Washington) and they have already welcomed back Josh Gordon and Dion Jordan to the league. While the reinstatement is conditional and will have requirements that need to be met, it’s a big step for both players.
It sounds like Jordan is going to finally be able to begin training with his teammates again. According to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, the league has informed the Dolphins
NFL notified Dolphins that LB Dion Jordan is now eligible to begin practicing, per source.

While it remains to be seen how Jordan performs after missing a lot of time off the field, it will be a chance for him to work toward being a rotational player in the league again and maybe finally playing up to that potential the Dolphins thought they were getting when they gave up a lot to get him.
With teams releasing their depth charts this week, it won’t be long until we see whether or not Jordan is able to make a move based on his standing with the team currently.
If he is indeed able to get on the field and be productive, then it’s a big plus for the Dolphins.
