Hillman (quad) will start Sunday against the Bears, head coach Gary Kubiak said Thursday.

Hillman has started the past few games after outplaying C.J. Anderson earlier in the season, though the two continue to share carries, with Hillman getting a slightly bigger workload. While Hillman will get an opportunity to keep getting touches if he plays well, there's the issue that if he struggles, Anderson could take over, limiting any upside.
