With C.J. Anderson gone, there’s an open competition to become the lead back for the Broncos in 2018, and Booker’s the closest thing to an incumbent. But as Jon Heath reported for Broncos Wire, Denver head coach Vance Joseph made it clear that if Booker wants the job, he’s going to have to up his game.china nfl jerseys

“We’ve got four or five backs competing to be the guy, so he’s got to come out and work and earn the right to be the guy,” Joseph said. “Obviously, he understands that with C.J. gone, it’s a wide-open race. He’s excited about that and he should take a step forward. He’s a good football player, but we want more from him.”nfl jerseys for cheap authentic

It’s a tall ask. In two NFL seasons, Booker has averaged a meh 3.6 yards per carry, and the former Utah star has struggled with fumbles—six (three lost) in just 253 career carries.

The Broncos used a Day 2 pick this year on tailback Royce Freeman, serving notice to Booker that he’d better bring his A game in 2018.nfl jersey supply
