Javonte Williams, Broncos could feature screen passes often in 2022
The Denver Broncos could feature screen passes more heavily in 2022 with Russell Wilson at the helm, according to Nick Kosmider of The Athletic.
What It Means:
The Broncos are looking to pack a wallop in the extremely tough AFC West this season, and part of that is making the most of their dynamic offensive weapons. Screen passes could be a big part of that, as second-year back Javonte Williams is looking to make a bigger impact in the passing game. “We’re pretty much wide receivers and running backs this year,” Williams said. “We have to learn all the different (route) concepts.” If this does end up happening, both Williams and Melvin Gordon would see upticks in value, especially in PPR formats.
Our models currently project Williams for 1,125.45 rushing yards, 52.74 catches on 64.49 targets for 368.80 yards, and 11.43 all-purpose touchdowns this season.
