Williams rushed seven times for 20 yards and secured one of two targets for five yards in the Broncos' 30-3 preseason win over the Seahawks on Saturday night. He also fumbled into the end zone, where it was recovered by offensive lineman Dalton Risner for a touchdown.
The rookie saw the opportunity for his first rushing score as a pro slip through his fingers for the second straight game, as he'd also had a touchdown nullified by penalty in last Saturday's exhibition opener against the Vikings. Williams opened the same drive that culminated with his fumble by ripping off his two most impressive runs of the night, as he rattled off eight- and six-yard carries off left end. The North Carolina product already has shown a propensity for solid chunk gains over his first pair of exhibitions, and he should see a solid amount of opportunities right out of the gate this season while working in tandem with Melvin Gordon.
