Fantasy Football News and Rumors

PN's Adam Schefter reports Melvin Gordon has informed the Chargers he will not report to training camp and demand a trade unless he receives a new contract.
Gordon is currently scheduled to earn $5.6 million in the fifth and final year of his rookie contract. This report comes a bit out of left field considering Gordon reported to mandatory minicamp in June, but contract talks have apparently not gone well since then. With Gordon's short-term status in question, Austin Ekeler -- and perhaps Justin Jackson -- needs to be moved up draft boards.

This will complicate my keeper decisions in a couple of leagues.

Imagine keeping him and then him holding out all year. Then your team can be like my leveon bell keeper squad from last year - whack.

Heard Melvin Gordon is demanding a new contract or he'll hold out.

Hahaha! That's really gonna suck fer whoever drafted him in the Suicide Lea.............................aw fuck!

I have him in a dynasty league and even with the hold out he is valuable for two years from now. It is the keeper league with limited number of keepers that will be an issue.

I understand. Happened to me last year. He wasted a valuable bench spot all year. I ended up winning despite him.

Derrius Guice recovering from hamstring issue Guice was already questionable for the start of camp as he completes his recovery from a torn ACL. The Fan's Craig Hoffman adds important context, saying the injury "happened a few weeks ago." The severity is unclear. Even if minor, Guice can ill afford any complications as he tries to get back to full health, especially after offseason reports had him behind in his rehab. Guice's 2019 fantasy upside comes attached to high risk.


With modern medicine, and acl’s being no big deal, I’m shocked

Lots of terrible physical therapists. Even at the highest levels, unfortunately.

With the league already on record for not discipline him for that incident, I wonder what could come of this. If formal charges are brought he could get suspended. He did technically batter him and the threat of harm was there so it’s clear for an assault and battery charge.
