DENVER (AP) — An undrafted college free agent has made Denver's Week 1 roster in each of the last nine seasons,Anthony Chickillo Jersey. C.J. Anderson aims to keep that streak going.
The Indianapolis Colts have had at least one undrafted free agent make their Week 1 roster in each of the last 14 years,Cheap Nike Sb Shoes. Kansas City has a 10-year streak and Denver's nine-year streak includes the likes of cornerback Chris Harris and linebacker Wesley Woodyard.
The former University of California running back has been the untold story of the Broncos' training camp, toiling as he has behind second-round draft pick Montee Ball, second-year speedster Ronnie Hillman and former first-rounder Knowshon Moreno in Denver's dynamic backfield.

"We're bringing him along,Hydro Flask Cheap," offensive coordinator Adam Gase said. "(He's a) younger guy that was an undrafted free agent; you can't just throw him right in with what's going on with the 1s. It's a process for him, and I think he's trying to get caught up to speed as quickly as possible."
Facing backups or not,Cheap NFL Jerseys China, Anderson consistently reels off some of the longer, more impressive runs at training camp and it was no different in the Broncos' preseason opener.
With the Broncos getting better, it's becoming harder and harder for undrafted college free agents to crack their roster, but Anderson practices and plays with a nastiness befitting his status as an overlooked, underappreciated back who uses his snub of draft weekend as a burning ember his in belly.
"At the end of the day, they all say, 'You're here,Cheap Nike Shoes Free Shipping, it doesn't matter how you got here,'" Anderson said. "Terrell Davis was drafted in the sixth round. They always talk about him a lot. Rod Smith was undrafted, on the practice squad and they always talk about him a lot and he's done some things. So, the organization is known for undrafted players to step up and make plays and I'm just trying to put myself in that category."
Although Anderson isn't as assignment-sound or as consistent as the three backs ahead of him on the depth chart,Cheap Air Max 90 Free Shipping, Jacob Hester, Lance Ball and Jeremiah Johnson could find themselves the victims of Anderson's solid summer if he has another preseason game or two like he did Thursday night.
Nobody's talking about him thumping that trio anytime soon, but he's certainly put himself into the mix for making the 53-man roster after rushing for a game-high 69 yards on 15 carries Thursday night in Denver's 10-6 preseason win at San Francisco.
"I always knew what I could do," he said. "I never doubted my talent or my ability. It's not a surprise to me. But I am proud and I am glad I got the opportunity to do it. I just took advantage of my opportunities in front of me. You have some of the guys out there where it's on the line, undrafted guys like me trying to pave their way. So, them making the blocks making me look good really makes them look good."
"I've always got a chip on my shoulder with every team I play, including when I play the Denver Broncos at practice," he said.
Notes: CB Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie returned to practice Saturday in full pads just 10 days after suffering a high left ankle sprain. ... DC Jack Del Rio said he hasn't mapped out contingency plans in case All-Pro pass-rusher Von Miller loses his appeal of a four-game suspension for violating the league's drug-abuse policy, a hearing on which is scheduled for Thursday. "No, I haven't spent a lot of time on that. There is plenty of time for that," Del Rio said. "Right now we are just preparing the team that we have here working."
