Melvin Gordon Doubtful To Play In Week 4
5 years agoLos Angeles Chargers head coach Anthony Lynn said that running back Melvin Gordon is doubtful to play in Week 4 against the Dolphins. If Justin Jackson (calf) cannot play this Sunday, Lynn has faith in Troymaine Pope. Detrez Newsome is also another option off the practice squad. Gordon ended his contract holdout this week, but we're unlikely to see him on the field until Week 5 against the Broncos, even if Jackson is inactive. Austin Ekeler should see as many touches as he can handle in an excellent matchup. He'll be a no-brainer, high-end RB1 in what will be his last game as the Bolts No. 1 back.
