COSTA MESA, Calif. -- Even though Melvin Gordon went public with plans to hold out and not report to training camp on Wednesday due to an impasse in contract negotiations, Los Angeles Chargers general manager Tom Telesco said no ill will developed at this point between the organization and the star running back.
"I love Melvin Gordon," Telesco said. "He's an excellent player. He's tough. He has a great work ethic and represents our organization extremely well. But he's not here.
"I understand his thoughts and opinions of what he's going through. I always look at the player's side, so I can see it.
