The fullback position is pretty much a non-negotiable for Denver Broncos head coach Sean Payton within his offense. Over the last two seasons, veteran Michael Burton has played 11-15 snaps per week for Payton, who still utilizes the bruising lead blocker like it's 1999.
Even for what appears to be a trivial number of snaps for a full-time position, the Broncos not only utilize the fullback but also get plenty of special teams work out of a player like Burton. He has played nearly 600 special teams snaps over the last two seasons combined.
