ENGLEWOOD, Colo. -- Denver Broncos running back Melvin Gordon III believes most people have already designated Javonte Williams as the team's top back, but Gordon said Monday he isn't ready, or willing, to surrender his chance at the job.
"I told [Broncos general manager George Paton] when I was at the [negotiating] table, I'm not going to lay down, I'm not going to lay down,'' Gordon said. " ... I've always got that mindset that I've got to go get it every year.
"I know a lot of people want me to take the backseat and I get it,'' Gordon added.
