The Denver Broncos’ running back room is one of the best in football. The combination of Javonte Williams and Melvin Gordon III offers a balance of explosive playmaking ability and down-to-down consistency.
The question of how snaps and touches will be dispersed is a priority this camp. According to Cecil Lammey, Williams can be the beneficiary of the new coaching staff’s decisions. Given Williams’ practice reps resembling that as a starter, it’s no surprise that many are anticipating a 70-30 split of the work.
DraftKings has Williams’ rushing line set for 945.5 yards. Gordon’s presence has sunk the over’s odds to -105, but the UNC product’s proclivity for the home run keeps that bet viable, especially now that it seems he’ll get the vast majority of the work.
