Surpass 1,150 Rushing Yards, 10 TDs
It has been a down last few seasons for Melvin Gordon from a statistical totals standpoint in the rushing department after missing a combined eight games. The 2020 campaign with the Broncos will mark a fresh start and an opportunity to bounce back.
The output Gordon produced per game over his last two seasons as a rusher would have put him over 1,000 total yards and 10 rushing touchdowns had he appeared in all 16 games. That was even with considering his underwhelming play last season.
There will naturally be a reduction in the potential for total figures from Gordon since he is still sharing a backfield with another regularly utilized option. However, he won’t be rusty from a contract holdout to start the season like he was in 2019.
During the upcoming season, Gordon will manage to produce over 1,150 rushing yards and 10 rushing touchdowns for the Broncos. Keep in mind, that’s barring any potential injury that would cause him to miss games.
