Fantasy Impact
Gordon, who is dealing with soreness in his injured knee, expects to play Sunday against Kansas City despite unexpectedly popping up on the injury report this week. Facing a Chiefs defense who he's had success against in his career -- in three games he's accumulated 129 yards rushing and two TDs on the ground while hauling in five targets for 40 yards as a receiver -- Gordon should be in all fantasy lineups, if he indeed plays, in Week 3.
