Expectations low for Melvin Gordon

San Diego Chargers rookie running back MELVIN GORDON is likely to have a limited workload this season. Gordon averaged less than 2.3 yards on his 20 preseason carries and he is not yet an adept blocker. While his struggles are obvious, the presence of receiving back DANNY WOODHEAD and BRANDEN OLIVER will also limit his opportunities. Like many teams, the Chargers seem content to employ a committee backfield.
