Broncos Legend, Hall of Famer Terrell Davis: Today's NFL 'Game Would Have Killed Me'

Pro Football Hall of Fame running back Terrell Davis, who starred in the late 1990s with the Denver Broncos, said in a recent interview that "today's game would have killed me."

Davis made his remarks to The Athletic's Jim Trotter, who noted how the devaulation of the running back in today's game could lead to fewer of them landing in the Pro Football Hall of Fame.

"Today's game would have killed me," Davis told Trotter.

"It's funny now. I coach youth football, and I coach the old-school way for running backs, but most of my periods with them are spent running routes because I know that's where the game is.
