Denver Broncos rookie running back Devontae Booker has been stealing some work with the first-team offense as of late.

"Probably just the coaches wanting me to get more reps with the 1s," Booker told Mike Klis of KUSA-TV. "Felt good about it and just continuing to go about the work."

Booker has quickly earned the trust of Denver's coaching staff with running backs aide Eric Studesville saying: "I'll put him in the game right now."

The Broncos have C.J. Anderson and Ronnie Hillman returning at the position.
