Melvin Gordon III News
Baltimore Ravens running backs Melvin Gordon and Kenyan Drake have been elevated from the practice squad to the active roster ahead of the Week 3 matchup against the Indianapolis Colts. Justice Hill (toe) will miss Sunday's contest, leaving Gus Edwards as the only healthy running back on the active roster. The Ravens elevated Gordon last week against the Cincinnati Bengals. Yet, the veteran didn't see the field. Meanwhile, Baltimore added Drake to the practice squad earlier this week. Edwards will be the lead running back and the only viable starting option for fantasy players. However, expect Gordon and Drake to see some work tomorrow against the Colts.
Baltimore Ravens running back Melvin Gordon III was elevated from the practice squad to the active roster on Saturday. With J.K. Dobbins (Achilles) done for the year, the Ravens needed to make a move to add depth to the position. Of course, Justice Hill and Gus Edwards are expected to split carries out of the backfield in Week 2 versus the Bengals. As a result, Gordon shouldn't do much for fantasy managers. However, it appears there's a chance for anyone to get involved at the running back spot moving ahead, so Gordon is at least worth monitoring.
Baltimore Ravens running back Melvin Gordon III has signed with the team to be a member of their practice squad one day after being released. The veteran RB didn't do enough during camp to crack the 53-man roster but they were able to bring him back this way. After fizzling out with the Broncos over 10 games last season, posting 318 yards on 90 carries to go along with two touchdowns, he ended up on the Chiefs practice squad for the remainder of the season. Gordon III signed a one-year deal with Baltimore back on July 21 and will now serve as an emergency option for the Ravens if J.K. Dobbins or Gus Edwards were to ever get hurt.
