It has been a less-than-stellar start to the season for Broncos starting running back C.J. Anderson, who has totaled 74 rushing yards and is averaging 2.3 yards per carry through three games.
Coach Gary Kubiak and the coaching staff would like to get Anderson on track Week 4 against the Vikings.
"We have to keep C.J. on the field. C.J. has been coming off the field the past three games because he's been nicked up," Kubiak said, per The Denver Post. "Things are going on, and we need to keep him on the field consistently."
Anderson missed time through the first three games due to ankle, toe and head injuries. He cleared the concussion protocol during Sunday's game at Detroit.
