“So now, barring an unexpected trade, the #Chargers say Melvin Gordon can play for $5.605 million or not play at all https://t.co/ibxORCSDK5”

that’s how a robot works too

👀

@NachoTaco no no no. Read it carefully. Why would their be negotiations after the season. If he does that to him his contract is done and can leave.

They are saying they won’t play him at all

https://youtu.be/RD5k5ujouUA OJ Simpson's take on the McCoy situation.

That’s how he basically looses 5.6 mil, and there would be no post season negotiations.

He has played out his contract basically he’s just asking for extension

MVS or Allison

This is last year of contract

Is he gonna play or what

@NachoTaco so he’s under contract. If they don’t play him he sits a year and is still under contract.

Seeking more money as confidence.. he knows he could be done after this year

I’m not sure how your not understanding their statement. They are saying he either shows up and plays or doesn’t play at all. Meaning the year doesn’t count and he’s still where he’s at

Fellas I agree, he basically signed knowing he is going to renege on it..That’s why I say RB’s need a 3 year rookie contract, not 5...RB’s life in the league is much shorter...

They literally tied his hands. The only way he can fix this is to fake an injury.

Yeah rookie contracts should be 2 years

They aren’t saying he can come back week 10. They are saying you show up or you don’t play.

@NachoTaco totally agree, especially for RB’s

They should know by then what type of long term commitment to make

Organization like chargers for example made billions off gordon . Most came just to watch him play or purchased his jersey only

I like ending negotiations. They've discussed it and Gordon rejected reasonable offers. Now that the season is starting there is nothing to discuss. Honestly idk who would trade for him. All the teams with ?rbs have a rookie they want to ride with.

Gordon is a volume guy, never been super efficient. Give Ekler the same reps behind the same o-line and he will produce similarly. Its systems that make these guys and the coaching staff/front office know it. Why pay now when you have 2 good backup options

It’s definitely an eye opener bell has created
