Editor’s note: Second in a series previewing the Broncos’ position groups entering training camp. Today, running backs.
On the roster (six): Javonte Williams, Samaje Perine, Tony Jones Jr., Tyler Badie, Jaleel McLaughlin, FB Michael Burton.
How many on the 53? Three running backs and Burton
Most impactful offseason move: Signing Perine
The Broncos used the second day of free agency in March to improve their depth at running back, signing Perine to a two-year, $7.5 million contract. Perine is an experienced player capable of stepping in if Williams has to miss time as he recovers from a torn ACL.
