Montee Ball

Montee Ball projected to back up C.J. Anderson

Sources close to the team says that Gary Kubiak plans to give running back Montee Ball seven to eight carries per game behind starter C.J. Anderson.

What It Means:

Ball will serve as a valuable handcuff for Anderson who is projected for 18 carries per game in Denver's high powered offense. Ball has been a disappointment in his first two seasons in the league. We project Ball to finish with 278 rushing yards, one rushing touchdown, 14 receptions and 89 receiving yards.
