Every time Broncos running back Javonte Williams burrows his way through the line, runs away from or even tries to jump over defenders, his combination of speed and power endears him to teammates and fans alike.
Running backs coach Curtis Modkins, a 27-year sideline veteran, sees it, too. But he also sees something else. Something unique. Something unteachable.
And, just nine games into Williams’ pro career, something special.
“On all of those (highlight) runs, what stands out the most is he runs with more than his talent,” Modkins said during an interview with The Denver Post.
