According to reports, San Diego Chargers running back Melvin Gordon has been ruled OUT for Week 7.

Fantasy alert: Chargers’ RB Melvin Gordon is inactive for the 9:30 am ET kickoff in London against the Tennessee Titans.

Gordon was downgraded Saturday to questionable due to a hamstring injury. More on ESPN’s Sunday NFL Countdown at 10 am ET.

As Adam Schefter mentioned, the Chargers play at 9:30 am ET in London, so if you have Gordon in your lineup, you had better make a move quick.

One option, if he is available in your league, is to pick up Austin Ekeler, who should now carry most of the workload for the Chargers.

The pride came before the fall for Mark Dantonio’s Spartans in 21-7 loss to Michigan

Mark Dantonio is the master of using bulletin board material to help motivate his football team. In fact, I would be willing to bet he had a plethora of material that he presented to his team prior to their matchup on Saturday against their biggest rival, the Michigan Wolverines. One of his goals is to convince his players (and probably himself) that they are being unrightfully disrespected by their opponents on a weekly basis.

Who can blame Dantonio for using this strategy? After all, he has won multiple Big 10 titles, beat Michigan in 8 of the past 10 matchups heading into Saturday, and he even found a way to get the Spartans to a College Football Playoff.

But on Saturday, Dantonio made a huge mistake and his team would end up paying for it in a big way.

You see, during warmups, the Spartans were reportedly about 10 minutes late coming out onto the field. When the finally arrived, some of the Michigan players were already going through some of their own warmups around midfield.
