Report: Gordon will play vs. Seahawks after 1-game absence

Los Angeles Chargers star running back Melvin Gordon will play Sunday versus the Seattle Seahawks, a source told ESPN's Adam Schefter.

Gordon missed Week 7's contest against the Tennessee Titans with a hamstring injury and had the Week 8 bye to recover. He was listed as questionable on the Chargers' injury report this week.

Gordon is the league's 12th-leading rusher with 466 yards and a 5.1 yards-per-carry average in six games played this season.

The Chargers struggled to run the ball without him in the lineup last week. Backup Austin Ekeler led the way on the ground with 42 yards on 12 carries.
