It's hard not to be excited about Broncos RB Javonte Williams heading into this season. jfmckessy breaks down why, despite Melvin Gordon's return, Williams is poised to be Denver's breakout star in 2022. FrontOffice33 | BroncosCountry
There’s no disrespect intended in calling Williams a breakout player in his second season in the NFL. Denver’s second-round pick in 2021 already made a very strong first impression in his rookie year, splitting carries with veteran running back Melvin Gordon in the Broncos’ backfield. Even though Gordon was technically the primary starter, he and Williams finished with the exact same number of carries and nearly the same amount of production.
Denver split his and Gordon’s carries straight down the middle in 2021, but it’s likely the Broncos will lean more heavily on Williams after he proved himself his rookie year and as Gordon enters his age-29 season. Assuming they do, what should we expect to see from Williams in his second year? Well, probably just a bit more of everything that made him so successful as a rookie.
In just 203 carries, Williams ran through 63 missed tackles, second-most in the NFL last year and just three behind leader Jonathan Taylor on 129 fewer rushes. In all, the rookie finished his first season averaging 3.4 yards after contact, also among the league’s best. This play against the Cowboys in Week 9 provides a look at everything he’s capable of as a runner.
