Wake Forest defensive back Evan Slocum trips up Notre Dame running back Audric Estime during the first half of an NCAA college football game in South Bend, Ind., Saturday, Nov. 18, 2023.
The interesting part, then, is that Denver has all three of its running backs from last year’s rotation still under contract for 2024. Perine had 50 catches last year and McLaughlin is a dynamic change-of-pace guy, but probably not an every-down option at the moment. They’ve got relatively defined roles. Perine, in particular, will be tasked with showing he provides something to the offense that Estime doesn’t.
Franklin’s got a combination of traits not otherwise found in the room. Denver’s got guys with size. It’s got speed with Mims and Johnson. Franklin, the No. 102 overall pick in the draft, has both.

He’s got to show he can be trusted not just by the familiar quarterback in Bo Nix, but also by the coaching staff and the other quarterbacks.
