Watch: Former Oregon Duck Royce Freeman's first NFL touchdown with the Denver Broncos

Royce Freeman saved his best for last.

The Denver Broncos rookie running back and former Oregon Ducks star scored his first-ever NFL touchdown Saturday night in the Broncos preseason opener. Freeman scored on a nifty 23-yard run during the second quarter of the Broncos 42-28 loss to the Minnesota Vikings.

Rollin' in to the end zone!

Freeman took the handoff and easily eluded Vikings defensive end Tashawn Bower at the line of scrimmage. The key move was his juke of Vikings strong safety Anthony Harris at the 14 before cutting to the outside and outrunning three Vikings to the end zone.
