When the Broncos played the Lions on Dec. 22, offensive lineman Graham Glasgow came away impressed with Denver’s offense.
“I thought that the way that they — first thing’s first — I thought that they ran the ball really well in the game,” Glasgow said during a conference call with reporters on March 24. “I remember seeing quite a few big runs in big games by I think it was Phillip Lindsay. I thought that their offensive line played really well that game. I thought that he had some big throws particularly on third down I think … that was pretty impressive for me.”
Lindsay finished the game with 109 rushing yards and a touchdown and Royce Freeman added 28 yards on the ground and another score.
Three months later, Glasgow signed a four-year deal with the Broncos.
“I thought that they were putting up a lot of points and they were putting a lot of pressure on us,” Glasgow recalled, “which is telling me that they were doing something right.”
Glasgow will now aim to help the offense continue “doing something right,” particularly in the run game. After signing Melvin Gordon, the Broncos have made it clear that they plan to run the ball early and often in 2020.
