Khalfani Muhammad
The Broncos kept Khalfani Muhammad on the practice squad throughout the entire 2019 season, and he returned to the team on a reserve/futures contract for another crack at it in 2020.
Muhammad was acquired by the Tennessee Titans as a seventh-round pick in the 2017 NFL Draft out of California before he was ultimately brought to Denver late in 2018 as a practice squad back.
This will be his third season overall working with Denver, and the reason he’s been kept around this long is simple — Muhammad might be the fastest running back the Broncos have. He and Phillip Lindsay would at least have some close races.
That speed and acceleration stood out in last year’s preseason play.

The issue with Muhammad is whether or not he can consistently provide that kind of juice in the running game, and whether or not he can play on special teams.
At this point, that remains to be seen. Muhammad is a small back at 5-foot-7, 174 pounds, but he’s got such special speed that the team might try to find roles for him.
