Congratulations to @cjandersonb22 on an awesome NFL career with some of my favorite plays in Broncos history. TD run vs. Patriots, TD in Super Bowl 50, the catch and run vs. Oakland, the pinball run vs. the Colts, many more.

Spoke to him for awhile last summer about his Dreams Never Die Foundation. He’s a fascinating dude: https://t.co/lEtY2qLJUq https://t.co/uYI2EiDjTL

C.J. Anderson retires as the Broncos 9th all-time leading rusher with 3,051 yards.
He and Terrell Davis (No. 1 on that list) are the only RBs to ever start in a Broncos Super Bowl victory.

C.J. Anderson: "You know my offensive mind. I want to be a head coach some day, coach at the highest level. I've learned from some of the best, Kubiak, Goose (Gase), McVay, E (Studesville), Norv, VJ (Joseph). I want to pass my knowledge on to the next generation." #9sports https://t.co/gRfTnaTj45

C.J. Anderson hangs them up. What a great career for the once undrafted free agent. https://t.co/o6HYeyavVp

Loved watching C.J Anderson being a human bowling ball during the @RamsNFL Super Bowl run. Pretty great CV for a Free Agent, good luck coaching! https://t.co/9UmMoIet2M

C.J. Anderson is the single greatest reason the Rams made it to the Super Bowl. With all that fans now know about the fragility of Todd Gurley, who’s now in Atlanta, how LA saw fit to cut bait on Anderson is why they are much closer to the bottom than the top of the NFC West.
