Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports Melvin Gordon’s holdout is expected to last 6-8 weeks. (Ian Rapoport on Twitter )
Fantasy Impact:
Gordon needs to report by Week 10 for his season to accrue towards free agency, so at this point it makes sense he won’t return until then. It’s a blow to fantasy owners who used an early round pick on the 26-year-old, but there is always risk when selecting a player adamant on holding out. Austin Ekeler and Justin Jackson will split touches for the first couple months of the Chargers’ season.
