Denver Broncos running back Melvin Gordon (hip/shoulder) is “50-50” for Sunday’s game against the Kansas City Chiefs, coach Vic Fangio estimated before Thursday’s practice.
If Gordon is not able to play on “Sunday Night Football,” rookie Javonte Williams would be the team’s featured back with Mike Boone serving as the backup.
