If we’re looking at snap counts alone, it seems like there is a new sheriff in the Denver backfield and it’s the rookie Audric Estime.
The Denver Broncos have seemingly been looking for a new starting running back this year. Javonte Williams has been good, and great at times, but it seems like Denver doesn’t trust him to consistently produce at the levels they’re looking for. Estime has shown flashes, and even seemed like he’d be taking the reigns at the beginning of the year but then he had to be put on the IR. And if it wasn’t for his early fumbling issues, everyone would be a lot more confident in him already.
