    Default Exclusive: Melvin Gordon reflects on 'difficult season,' looks forward to bright future

    Former Pro Bowler 'sick of getting overlooked,' aims to help team reach playoffs

    DENVER — On Thursday, reflecting back on his brief time in Denver, Melvin Gordon described it as one of his most "difficult years" in the NFL.

    This was primarily a reference to the role he sought, the player he was attempting to replace, an off-field issue and the inability to connect with fans in sparsely populated or empty stadiums.

    Gordon signed with the Broncos 13 months ago, and Broncos Country didn't quite know what to make of him. He made the Pro Bowl with the Chargers and averaged 50 receptions over the previous three seasons.

    However, the team already had a Pro Bowler in Phillip Lindsay, a homegrown kid from Denver South and the University of Colorado. Gordon seemed like an odd fit, even as offensive coordinator Pat Shurmur promised the two would share the field at times and complement each other.

    I was a big critic of Gordon when he came here, he started off quite poorly, but there is no denying he came around second half. Hopefully he means what he says in this article. If so he should have a good year for Denver.

    As far as Gordon he’ll take a huge step next year and having a legit back up in Boone will be awesome as well, Boone is a guy I’m truly waiting to see explode with more reps.
