Updating previous reports, Denver Broncos RB Royce Freeman has the opportunity to be the team’s lead back, according to head coach Vance Joseph.
Footballguys View: Freeman is going to compete in training camp with Devontae Booker for the starting job. The Broncos are going to be a run-heavy team, and fantasy owners need to watch this situation closely to see if one back emerges as the bellcow. Booker has done little to impress (3.6 YPC average) in two years, and Freeman could have RB2 value for fantasy owners if he’s the lead back for the Broncos.
