Melvin Gordon III Back At Practice Thursday
3 years agoDenver Broncos running back Melvin Gordon III (hip, thumb) was limited in Thursday's practice session after he didn't take part on Wednesday. Gordon should be available to play in Sunday's divisional clash with the Las Vegas Raiders, where he will resume a near-even timeshare with rookie Javonte Williams. Gordon has had more of a nose for the end zone in 2021 with nine total touchdowns (seven rushing, two receiving), and the Raiders defense has allowed the fifth-most fantasy points per game to RBs this year. Williams will be the better upside play as an RB2, but Gordon should be at least in play as a low-end RB2 in this good matchup in which the Broncos figure to lean heavily on the ground game with quarterback Drew Lock getting the start.
