The Los Angeles Chargers have apparently made a move to try and get something moving in any direction with their standoff with holdout RB Melvin Gordon.
Some potentially big news for the #Chargers: They have given the reps for Melvin Gordon permission to seek a trade, sources say. He’ll explore his options, which include returning. But big few days.

This is a smart move by the Chargers. It doesn’t close the door on him returning, but it does get things moving.
