Chargers RB Melvin Gordon requests trade

Josina Anderson tweets, "Chargers RB Melvin Gordon's agent Damarius Bilbo tells me he requested a trade last wk for his client, after the team remained at their initial offer of aprox $10M/ year. GM Tom Telesco told Bilbo, Gordon is still family, but Bilbo was not given permission to seek trade partners."

Melvin Gordon and the Chargers aren't close in negotiations and it doesn't look like the team is willing to budge, while also shutting down any chance of trading their star running back. Without an olive branch from the team, Gordon could stay entrenched in his hold out, making him a real risk to miss time this season.
