Some Denver Broncos fans (and many fantasy football managers) want to see the team turn the backfield over to Javonte Williams.
Melvin Gordon has made it clear that he’s going to fight for the starting job, though, and the Broncos have made it clear that they plan to use a two-back rotation. Neither Williams nor Gordon will dominate the touches in 2022.
Nathaniel Hackett, who used two running backs while serving as the Green Bay Packers’ offensive coordinator, is now Denver’s head coach and he’s spoken very highly of Gordon this offseason.
