Report: Ravens, Gordon discussing deal

The Baltimore Ravens and free-agent running back Melvin Gordon are discussing a potential deal, a source told NFL Network's Ian Rapoport.

Gordon played the last two seasons for the Denver Broncos. He topped 1,000 scrimmage yards in both campaigns while averaging 4.6 yards per rushing attempt. He joined the Broncos as a free agent in 2020 after spending his first five NFL seasons on the Los Angeles Chargers, where he earned two Pro Bowl berths.

Gordon has been in touch with the Broncos this offseason, but it's unclear if he'll return to Mile High. Denver is set to give sophomore Javonte Williams a bigger role this season.

The Ravens have had one of the NFL's most dominant running games in recent years but face questions at the running back position with J.K. Dobbins and Gus Edwards coming off torn ACLs. Quarterback Lamar Jackson led Baltimore with 767 yards on the ground in 2021.
