Broncos RB Phillip Lindsay aims to ‘eat cleaner this year’

Broncos running back Phillip Lindsay will make some adjustments to his diet during the NFL offseason.

Immediately after the Broncos’ 2019 season ended, running back Phillip Lindsay started thinking about how he can improve this offseason to go into the 2020 season with a better body.

“I’m going to go and get healed up,” Lindsay said on Dec. 30. “Then I’m going to start my plan for next year with my dieting and everything and go from there.”

Lindsay (5-8, 190 pounds) has gained 2,485 yards from scrimmage and has scored 17 touchdowns since signing with Denver as a college free agent out of Colorado in 2018. He plans to tweak his diet this offseason.

“I think I’m going to take a couple things out of my diet and see if it helps me out just in general,” Lindsay said. “I just want to eat cleaner this year coming up and that’s throughout the offseason. Honestly, it’s harder to eat clean during the season because you’re getting banged up and hit so much.

“I’m just trying to stay consistent with what I do and go from there.”

Lindsay has missed just one game over the last two years and he is yet to fumble in the NFL. The running back’s new diet will aim to help him stay healthy and productive going into next season.
