Melvin Gordon will continue his 2022 season in the AFC West.
The Kansas City Chiefs are expected to sign Gordon to their practice squad, NFL Network Insider Tom Pelissero reports, per a source. Pelissero adds that Gordon should be active soon after spending the past week as a free agent.
In addition to signing Gordon, the Chiefs also signed wide receiver Bryan Edwards, per the transaction wire. Edwards, a former third-round pick of the Raiders, was previously waived by the Falcons.
Gordon was waived by the Denver Broncos following a Week 10 overtime loss to the Raiders in which he lost a crucial fumble at the goal line. Gordon’s blunder continued what had been a mistake-riddled season in Denver with a total of five fumbles, two of which were lost. The Broncos had limited Gordon’s playing time earlier in the season because of his fumbles.
