The Facts: The Broncos are planning a committee approach at running back this season. But will Charles be part of that committee? Not necessarily. Longtime Denver reporter Mike Klis of KUSA puts Charles' odds of making the 53-player roster to start the season at only 50-50.

Diehards Line: Klis notes that Charles has a history of knee injuries and missed 13 games last year after missing 11 games in 2015. As PFT's Michael David Smith notes, Charles’ minimum-salary contract makes cutting him relatively painless under the salary cap. With last year’s co-starters C.J. Anderson and Devontae Booker back along with rookie De’Angelo Henderson, it’s easy to envision the Broncos keeping three running backs, and Charles not being one of them. Smith summed up: "Charles has averaged 5.5 yards a carry for his career, the best of any running back in NFL history. But at age 30, he may be done."
