Melvin Gordon III (born April 13, 1993) is an American football running back for the Denver Broncos of the National Football League (NFL).
He played college football at Wisconsin, and was drafted by the Chargers in the first round of the 2015 NFL Draft.

Gordon briefly held the NCAA Division I FBS single-game rushing yards record with 408 yards, set playing in three quarters against Nebraska in November 2014, until it was broken the following week by Oklahoma Sooners running back Samaje Perine against Kansas with 427 yards. He became the second all-time single-season rusher in FBS history with 2,587 yards, falling 41 yards shy of Barry Sanders record of 2,628 yards set in 1988.
