ENGLEWOOD, Colo. (AP) — Former Chargers running back Melvin Gordon says one of the biggest takeaways from his futile holdout in Los Angeles last year was realizing he still has so many detractors. This despite scoring 49 touchdowns at the University of Wisconsin and another 47 in the NFL.
Gordon says he's driven to prove he's still an elite running back after scoring nine touchdowns in a dozen games once he ended his holdout last season.
Gordon will now be teaming up with fellow Pro Bowl running back Phillip Lindsay in a dynamic Denver Broncos backfield.
