Before the 2019 season started the Denver Broncos signed free agent running back Theo Riddick to provide explosiveness and pass catching ability to the backfield. After sustaining an injury in the preseason, Riddick was sidelined for the rest of the season.
Riddick was injured on a pass thrown his direction from Kevin Hogan. There was another back, however, who surprised in the preseason and was close to earning a spot on the 53-man roster.
Riddick is the veteran running back and provides insurance to the pass protection area. Broncos would be wise to entertain the idea of him back; however, Khalfani Muhammad showed during the preseason he is an explosive running back.
