Melvin Gordon ‘Likes’ Tweets About Trade From Broncos After Benching

It has been a nightmarish season for Broncos running back Melvin Gordon and he isn’t helping his case on Twitter. At least, he’s not helping his case with the Broncos.

Before his team lost to the Chargers, his former team, Monday night, Gordon saw his usage plummet. He received just three carries in the Broncos’ 19–16 loss. The 29-year-old managed just eight yards on his limited touches and didn’t receive another opportunity past the second quarter. And it appears he began liking tweets from people proposing that Denver should trade him.

Specifically, he liked several tweets proposing a trade to the Rams for Cam Akers.
