The Denver Broncos’ backfield can’t avoid problems in 2020.
With Phillip Lindsay apparently ready to return against the New England Patriots in Week 6 from injury, Melvin Gordon could eventually be gone at some point — for three games — after a DUI arrest.
Gordon will be facing a 3 game suspension with the new CBA. The Broncos will look at all options. https://t.co/WDbGTImBs3

Per
Broncos running back Melvin Gordon was cited late Tuesday with driving under the influence by the Denver Police Department, court and police documents show.
Gordon was also ticketed for speeding between 25 mph and 39 mph over the limit at 5th Avenue and Speer Boulevard. He is expected to be arraigned in Denver County Court on Friday, Nov. 13. The Broncos leave the next day for a game against the Raiders in Las Vegas.
The Broncos released this statement when asked for comment:
“We are aware of the situation involving Melvin Gordon. Our organization has been in communication with him and is in the process of gathering more details.”
