ENGLEWOOD, Colo. -- Running back Ronnie Hillman is facing a battle to retain his roster spot with the Denver Broncos.
Hillman, who has appeared in 48 games with 14 starts since being drafted by the Broncos in the third round out of San Diego State in 2012, is getting competition from rookie Devontae Booker and third-year pro Kapri Bibbs for the right to back up starter C.J. Anderson.
Coach Gary Kubiak said Hillman would see plenty of action in Saturday’s exhibition against the San Francisco 49ers as part of the ongoing evaluation process.
