Melvin Gordon and Philip Lindsay will share time in the Denver Broncos' backfield this season and it remains to be seen how carries will be divided.

Gordon, who signed as a free agent in March, hopes to form an "electric" partnership with Lindsay.

"We're gonna compete for that spot," Gordon said. "I know it's his territory. You gotta take the humble route, but I'm a competitor at the end of the day. I'm gonna compete and he is, too. I'm just gonna put my head down and work and see where I'm at. But you're right, there can only be, there's a No. 1 guy and a No. 2 guy — it is what it is. I'm gonna go work and get mine."
