Melvin Gordon Rumors: Chargers RB Won't Report for Week 1 Amid Contract Holdout

Melvin Gordon is set to miss regular-season games, as he plans to extend his holdout through Week 1, according to Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.

He is expected to sort through trade options, and only a "new development" would cause him to report to the Los Angeles Chargers, per Fowler.

Gordon had been seeking a new contract, but general manager Tom Telesco announced Sunday that all extension talks will be postponed until the end of the 2019 season, per ESPN's Adam Schefter.
