Javonte Williams enters NFL with less 'wear and tear' than Najee Harris, Travis Etienne

Posted May 12, 2021
Denver Broncos rookie Javonte Williams is expected to split backfield touches with Melvin Gordon this season. That’s nothing new for Williams — he also shared carries with Michael Carter while at North Carolina. “I think that it will be a huge part of me staying healthy,” Williams said on April 30 when asked about his limited college workload.
