Melvin Gordon III Returns To Practice Wednesday
3 years agoDenver Broncos running back Melvin Gordon III (hip, shoulder) will practice on Wednesday, according to head coach Vic Fangio. It's not what Javonte Williams' fantasy managers want to hear, as the Denver backfield could go back to an even timeshare between Gordon and the rookie this weekend against the Detroit Lions if Gordon is able to return in Week 14. Williams was extremely impressive in his first NFL start in the loss to the Kansas City Chiefs, carrying a season-high 23 times for 102 yards and catching six of nine targets for 76 yards and a touchdown. If Gordon returns in a great matchup against the one-win Lions, both Gordon and Williams will have RB2 upside in a game in which the Broncos could stick to their run-first identity.
