Report: Chargers Postpone Contract Talks With Melvin Gordon Until After the Season

The Los Angeles Chargers have paused contract extension negotiations between the team and running back Melvin Gordon until the season's end, ESPN's Adam Schefter reported on Sunday.

According to Schefter, Chargers general manager Tom Telesco said that all talks have been postponed just one day after the team granted Gordon permission to seek a trade.

Gordon held out of training camp as he seeks a new contract. Earlier this month, the Pro Bowl back said he was "just waiting on the call," from Los Angeles regarding a resolution, but after contract talks failed to progress, it was reported that Gordon's holdout was expected to continue into the season.
