Michael Burton Back With Broncos

Wednesday, March 26, 2:35 PM

The Denver Broncos are re-signing fullback Michael Burton for the 2025 campaign, according to team reporter Zac Stevens. Burton was originally a fifth-round pick by the Detroit Lions in 2015 out of Rutgers and has spent time with the Lions, Bears, Saints, Redskins, Chiefs, and Broncos. He reunited with Sean Payton in Denver in 2023 and is back for his third season with the organization. The 33-year-old is primarily utilized as a pure blocker, but he has compiled 42 carries for 79 yards and two touchdowns in 147 career games. He's hauled in 31 receptions for 196 yards and two scores as a receiver. In 2025, he could be blocking for a highly-drafted rookie running back like North Carolina's Omarion Hampton or Ohio State's TreVeyon Henderson.

Nicholas Singleton Could See More Work in Week 3

Saturday, September 26, 10:08 AM

Tennessee Titans running back Nicholas Singleton could see a few more carries against the New York Giants after making his NFL debut last week. Singleton was inactive in Week 1, then ran four times for 10 yards against Philadelphia. Head coach Robert Saleh said Friday that the rookie is "going in the right direction" and that Tennessee hopes to get him a couple more carries. There may be room for that if Tyjae Spears cannot go. Spears is questionable with an ankle injury after missing Wednesday and Thursday before returning to a limited practice Friday. Tony Pollard also dealt with an ankle issue this week, but he has no game designation and is expected to play. The Giants have allowed 116 rushing yards per game, and both Kyren Williams and Blake Corum averaged more than 6.5 yards per carry against them last week. Singleton is RB74 in RotoBaller's current Week 3 rankings. Even with a little more work, he is still a bench stash rather than a starting option.
