Chiefs expected to sign Bronco’s Melvin Gordon to practice squad

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (WIBW) - The Chiefs are expected to sign recently released Bronco Melvin Gordon to its practice squad.

The NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero reported on Monday, Nov. 28, that the Kansas City Chiefs are expected to sign Pro Bowl Running Back Melvin Gordon to its practice squad.

Gordon was released by the Denver Broncos last week and is expected to be active again soon. He was waived following an overtime loss in Week 10 to the Raiders after a crucial fumble by the running back.
