LONDON (AP) — Los Angeles Chargers running back Melvin Gordon has been downgraded to questionable for Sunday's game against the Tennessee Titans because of a hamstring injury.

Gordon is third in the NFL and leads the AFC with 466 rushing yards. He did not show up on the injury report until the team's practice in London on Friday, when his participation was limited.

The fourth-year running back has rushed for over 100 yards in two of the past three games, including 132 yards on 18 carries and three touchdowns in last Sunday's 38-14 win over Cleveland.

Austin Ekeler would likely be the starter if Gordon is unable to play. The second-year back is averaging 6.4 yards per carry and has three receiving touchdowns this season.
