Melvin Gordon come on down.

Big blow for Texans

Feel bad for Miller

Can't wait for a 9-7 Titans team to win the AFC South.

Could be a year we see 7-9 or 8-8 given the meh of the division at this point

Good thing they traded for Duke Johnson. Anyone who thinks they can get a running back through their practice squad might want to think twice. Should look at Corey Clement.

Hey Houston, Gordon's yours for a second round pick.

 

[Reality Check]

I saw highlights of that injury on ESPN yesterday and immediately thought of Willis McGahee against Ohio State.

Led by my man Tanny, after yet another injury to Mariotta.

Well the Raiders are dumping Doug Martin, he might be worth kicking the tires on

He’s out for the season

Sounds like that may not be the case

Would not be shocked to see them make a desperation play for Gordon and release Miller at the end of the season.

I'd be a bit surprised. O'Brien seems to be the final voice on roster decisions and he comes from the Patriots line of coaches. Can't see him too interested in paying premium money to an RB.

Yahoo fantasy has him designated as an IR player.

Hey Houston, Gordon's yours for a second round pick.

I was curious if the Texans could afford both Miller and Gordon next season after Gordon gets a new contract, but then I saw Miller is a UFA after this season. Man, that sucks for Miller. He'll be 29 and coming off of an ACL injury. His next contract will be peanuts.

Desperate times call for desperate measures

Don't forget Miller was a somewhat lucrative free agent signing, not some late round steal or scrap heap guy.

 

[Big Poppa Puck]

Well Melvin Gordon is the first name that's gonna get thrown out. (Gordon for Clowney swap?)

But more likely, I see them bringing in a vet via trade or signing after they're potentially cut. Adrian Peterson, one of the old guys or Yeldon in Buffalo, Carlos Hyde and Doug Martin are some options.

Unless they're content with Johnson and Buddy Howell/Josh Ferguson/whoever else is in camp.

 

[Sharks2020]

Sucks for him, wonder if a Melvin Gordon trade May be coming or if it’s time for Duke Johnson to shine
