Head coach Gary Kubiak returned to his longtime home in Denver in 2015 and with him, he attempted to bring back the run-heavy scheme that brought success in the late 90’s. Due to roster constraints, though, it simply did not mesh.
Just over a year later, it appears Kubiak is trying again, and two players vying for one quickly-vanishing position will have an opportunity to hasten the process.
Juwan Thompson, a third-year Bronco, and rookie Andy Janovich are the clear favorites to bring the fullback position back into the fold for Denver’s offense and both are seeing encouraging signs in the early stages.
