The message is clear, smeared on the wall in bold ink for everyone to see. The Broncos’ 2015 leading rusher and starter for most of the season, Ronnie Hillman, is in a fierce battle to remain on the 2016 team.
C.J. Anderson and Devontae Booker have established themselves as Denver’s top two running backs, leaving Hillman searching for his role.
Momentum has built all summer for Kapri Bibbs to overtake Hillman as the Broncos’ No. 3 back. Hillman is well aware, but he put out his best two weeks of the summer to end training camp.
“I’ve still got to go out and prove I can still play and make the team, but I just came here with the mind-set of I’ve got to make it hard on the coaches,” Hillman said.
