  Ravens | Melvin Gordon expected to be promoted    Sat Sep 30, 11:27 AM

The Baltimore Ravens are likely to call up RB Melvin Gordon from their practice squad for Week 4's game against the Cleveland Browns.

Footballguys view: Gus Edwards is the lead back for the Ravens, but he's mostly a flex play for Fantasy GMs. Justice Hill is set to play this week after missing last week's game with a turf toe injury. Gordon is not the player he once was and will be pulling third-string duty for the Ravens.

Baltimore Ravens RB Melvin Gordon is being elevated from the practice squad for Week 3, per source on Saturday, Sept. 23.

Footballguys view: The Ravens are thin at the running back position - again - with Justice Hill (toe) banged up. Gordon is a seasoned veteran but not what he used to be. We'll see how much he gets worked into the mix behind starting RB Gus Edwards in Week 3.

Free-agent RB Melvin Gordon was signed to the Baltimore Ravens practice squad Wednesday, Aug. 30.

Footballguys view: Gordon didn't make the final roster, but the team wanted to keep him around. He's a seasoned veteran and if guys ahead of him on the depth chart get banged up, Gordon could be activated to play.

  Ravens | Melvin Gordon let go    Tue Aug 29, 03:32 PM

Baltimore Ravens RB Melvin Gordon was released Tuesday, Aug. 29, according to a source.

Footballguys view: The veteran back just isn't the player he used to be. With his ability, Gordon could get a look from another team but that opportunity may come after the start of the regular season.

  Ravens | Melvin Gordon agrees with Ravens    Fri Jul 21, 12:59 PM

Free-agent RB Melvin Gordon (Chiefs) agreed to a one-year deal with the Baltimore Ravens Friday, July 21, worth up to $3.1 million.

Footballguys view: Gordon is at the point of his career where he's not in line to carry the load. However, he can be veteran depth for the Ravens behind J.K. Dobbins and Gus Edwards. If those two are banged up, as has happened over the last couple of seasons, Gordon has plenty of starting experience.

  NFL | Melvin Gordon wants to play in 2023    Sat Jun 24, 01:32 PM

Free-agent RB Melvin Gordon (Chiefs) wants to play in 2023 but acknowledged the difficult market running backs face in this day and age, he told Jim Rome on Wednesday, June 21.

Footballguys view: Gordon will just have to play the waiting game, like many other veteran RBs out there on the open market. In fact, it may take a rash of training camp injuries before teams get to Gordon on their list. If he gets a shot with another team this year, Gordon is likely to be there as veteran depth.

  Chiefs | Melvin Gordon lands in KC    Tue Nov 29, 07:50 PM

Free-agent RB Melvin Gordon (Broncos) was signed to the Kansas City Chiefs' practice squad on Tuesday, Nov. 29.

Footballguys view: The Chiefs get the veteran back who has a nose for the end zone and a propensity for fumbling at key moments. The Broncos let Gordon go after his fumbling kept costing them games. Gordon won't see the field unless injuries strike in front of him on the Chiefs' depth chart.

  Chiefs | Melvin Gordon likely headed to KC    Mon Nov 28, 04:13 PM

Free-agent RB Melvin Gordon (Chiefs) is expected to join the Kansas City Chiefs' practice squad in the near future, according to a source.

Footballguys view: The Chiefs had better be careful if they ever let Gordon on the field. A notorious fumbler with the Chargers and Broncos, Gordon fumbled his job away in Denver but was only out of work for a little over a week.

  Broncos | Melvin Gordon handed pink slip    Mon Nov 21, 01:17 PM

Denver Broncos RB Melvin Gordon was waived Monday, Nov. 21.

Footballguys view: Zero surprise here. The Broncos had no choice, and this is something they may have been considering for some time. Gordon had five fumbles this season, and against the Raiders on Sunday he lost a fumble near the end zone in what would have been their third consecutive scoring drive. With the struggles of the offense, they can't afford anyone who coughs up the rock that much. Latavius Murray and Marlon Mack will take over in the backfield with Gordon cut.

  Broncos | Melvin Gordon to remain a starter    Tue Nov 1, 10:19 PM

Denver Broncos RB Melvin Gordon is expected to hold onto his gig as the starting running back, according to general manager George Paton.

Footballguys view: Gordon has been the starter since Javonte Williams was lost with an injury. During that time, Gordon has been outplayed and outproduced by Latavius Murray. Gordon can start every game, but it doesn't mean he'll be the most productive. Add in Chase Edmonds, and you can see the Broncos using a three-headed RBBC in the last half of the season.

  Broncos | Melvin Gordon has decent game    Sun Oct 30, 12:40 PM

Denver Broncos RB Melvin Gordon rushed for 29 yards and one touchdown on nine carries against the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 8. He also caught three passes for 23 yards during the game.

Footballguys view: This is about the best result you could hope for from Gordon, who is still in a committee with Latavius Murray. We'll be watching to see if Mike Boone is healthy enough to play after a Week 9 bye. The Broncos could also be in the market for a running back at the Tuesday trade deadline.

  Broncos | Melvin Gordon to start in Week 7    Wed Oct 19, 02:52 PM

Denver Broncos RB Melvin Gordon will start in Week 7 against the New York Jets, head coach Nathaniel Hackett said on Wednesday, Oct. 19.

Footballguys view: That's....interesting, to say the least. Gordon was seen pouting on the sidelines during Monday night's loss to the Chargers. He was essentially benched for RB Latavius Murray. Now, after a conversation with Hackett, Gordon is the starter but that doesn't mean much in a Broncos offense that is best avoided. Even though Gordon is starting, expect to see plenty of Murray and a dash of Mike Boone against the Jets on Sunday.

  Broncos | Nathaniel Hackett talks Melvin Gordon benching    Wed Oct 19, 01:51 PM

Denver Broncos RB Melvin Gordon 'didn't do anything wrong' and his lack of playing time in the second half of Week 6 was a result of the team not having 'a lot of football plays,' and wasn't a benching, head coach Nathaniel Hackett said on Tuesday, Oct. 18. 'The first quarter -- he was in on the second quarter, and in the third quarter, we didn't have a lot of football plays,' Hackett explained. 'We were going three-and-out. Our plan was to get into manageable third-down situations to be able to move the ball and control clock. We did and we just didn't convert on third down. When you are 29 percent on third down, that's a hard recipe for success. When it comes to the running back play, we need to look at that and sit there and say -- if somebody's doing a really good job, and I think Latavius [Murray] was doing a fine job, he had the opportunity to go another series. Then we just didn't have a lot of plays. We want all those guys, we need all those guys and we have to be sure they are all on the field.'

Footballguys view: Hackett is in over his head. Gordon didn't do anything wrong...except fumble in almost every game this year. Gordon also pouted on the sidelines during Monday night's loss to the Chargers, and he 'liked' a bunch of tweets suggesting the Broncos should trade him after Week 6. The Broncos have a ton of problems on the offensive side of the ball, and we don't have confidence in Hackett to turn things around.

  Broncos | OC throws his support behind Melvin Gordon    Tue Oct 4, 05:22 PM

Denver Broncos RB Melvin Gordon is 'going to carry the load, obviously,' according to offensive coordinator Justin Outten.

Footballguys view: Gordon was the third back on the field against the Raiders as his fumbles had put him in the coach's doghouse. Then, on his first carry, Gordon fumbled again (fifth game in a row dating back to last year) and it was returned for a touchdown. With Javonte Williams (knee) done for the year, Gordon is battling to be at the top of the depth chart. He should split time with Mike Boone and newly acquired Latavius Murray going forward.
