  Broncos | Richard Gordon waived    Wed May 4, 03:19 PM

Denver Broncos TE Richard Gordon was waived Wednesday, May 4.

Footballguys view: When the Broncos added TE Garrett Graham in free agency, it was a sign that Gordon could be released. Gordon is a big-bodied blocker who has bounced around the league during his brief pro career.

  Ravens | Two tight ends added by Ravens    Tue Dec 8, 12:39 PM

Free-agent TE Richard Gordon (Chiefs) and TE Konrad Reuland (Ravens) were signed to the Baltimore Ravens' 53-man roster Tuesday, Dec. 8.

Footballguys view: The Ravens have needed to do something with Crockett Gillmore (back) and Maxx Williams (concussion) banged up. Plus, the team just lost Nick Boyle to a four-game suspension. Neither Gordon or Reuland are fantasy factors, but they give the Ravens much needed depth.

  Broncos | Two roster moves made    Mon Oct 19, 04:44 PM

Denver Broncos RB Kapri Bibbs was waived and free-agent TE Richard Gordon (Broncos) was re-signed Monday, Oct. 19.

Footballguys view: Bibbs will likely end up back on the team's practice squad. This move likely means that Juwan Thompson will be ready for the Week 8 game against the Green Bay Packers. The Broncos have a bye in Week 7.

  Broncos | Kapri Bibbs added to roster    Sat Oct 17, 12:23 PM

Denver Broncos RB Kapri Bibbs was promoted from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday, Oct. 17. The team also released TE Richard Gordon.

Footballguys view: Keep an eye on this in super deep dynasty leagues. Bibbs is one of only three running backs in FBS history to score 30 or more rushing touchdowns in a single season (Barry Sanders, Montee Ball). He's an instinctive runner who plays with good burst and wastes little motion. Bibbs is a better receiver than people think too. He struggles in pass-protection, but if given a chance he might be able to spark the ground game.

The Detroit Lions brought in free-agent TE Kellen Davis (Seahawks) and TE Richard Gordon (Chiefs) for workouts.

  Raiders | David Ausberry expected to get first shot at TE    Thu Jul 18, 08:23 PM

Oakland Raiders TE David Ausberry is expected to receive the first chance to win the starting tight end job during training camp. TEs Nick Kasa and Mychal Rivera are expected to receive long looks during preseason games. TE Richard Gordon is also expected to be a candidate for the job.

Footballguys view: Ausberry is athletic, determined, and swift in the open field. He does have the size and athleticism to be a weapon if used appropriately, but the lack of proven production tempers expectations.

  Raiders | Wide open competition at TE    Mon Jun 3, 05:38 PM

Oakland Raiders head coach Dennis Allen said the competition for the starting tight end job is wide open because TEs David Ausberry, Richard Gordon and Mychal Rivera have done well during organized team activities. Allen said the team hopes TE Nick Kasa (hamstring) will be able to practice soon because they feel he can fill a role on offense.

Footballguys view: The team lost Brandon Myers (Giants) in free agency and will have to find his replacement in the starting lineup. Ausberry is physically gifted, aggressive, and can rip away contested passes away from defenders. Kasa is a raw prospect with decent upside. He's only been playing TE for about a year and a half after spending most of his time at Colorado as a Defensive End.

  Raiders | Nick Kasa, Mychal Rivera fill need    Wed May 1, 10:28 PM

Oakland Raiders rookie TEs Nick Kasa and Mychal Rivera have a chance to make an impact right away, as the team lost TE Brandon Myers (Giants) during the offseason, and have just TEs David Ausberry and Richard Gordon have experience at the position.

Footballguys view: Kasa is an intriguing developmental prospect. He's only played tight end for about a year and a half after going to Colorado as a defensive end. Kasa has a big frame and knows how to use his size to box out defenders.

  Raiders | David Ausberry, Richard Gordon doing little    Fri Dec 14, 10:49 PM

Oakland Raiders TEs David Ausberry and Richard Gordon each played just one offensive snap in Week 14, as they have obviously fallen well behind TE Brandon Myers on the depth chart. 'We've had a chance to look at these guys a little bit,' head coach Dennis Allen said. 'We kind of know what we've got in these guys. They're still in the lineup, and they'll still be used pretty much the same way we've used them.' That means plenty of special teams work for Ausberry and Gordon.
