Montrell Washington and his role on the 2022 Broncos

Montrell Washington has been having a great training camp so far. It may mean something. It may mean nothing, but let’s take the optimist view and say that this is the beginning of a great connection between Washington and Russell Wilson - similar to the connection he had with another small fast receiver, Tyler Lockett.

With the 162nd pick in the 2022 draft, the Denver Broncos selected Montrell Washington out of Samford College. Montrell is a wide receiver, but many thought he was picked mainly because of his return abilities. Montrell should be the primary punt and kickoff returner for the 2022 - both return units were poor last season (see below).
