Denver Broncos RB Javonte Williams is gearing up for a Year 2 breakout.
The back is “more confident” and sometimes that’s all it takes to unlock hidden potential. For fantasy football purposes, ESPN’s Eric Karabell agrees.
“No running back broke more tackles than Williams last season, and while it’s true the organization brought back Melvin Gordon III to annoyingly share touches, Williams is a better player,” Karabell wrote on ESPN.com. “A much better player. He’s big, strong and certainly capable of being a fantasy star, and the upgrade at quarterback to Russell Wilson will help as well. This will be a much better, more efficient offense, and Williams has tremendous fantasy upside. Don’t let the return of Gordon scare you away.”
