The Denver Broncos running back room is young, but with Theo Riddick coming into the mix, he hopes he can add some veteran leadership.

It was already a crowded room with Phillip Lindsay, Royce Freeman and Devontae Booker competing for playing time. It's unclear how Riddick exactly fits into the room but he hopes that his experience is going to help him, along with the other backs in the game.

“Because they are going to utilize my talent and my strengths,” Riddick said via ESPN. “I have a lot of experience being in the game for six years. We got a young room — very talented, but hopefully I can help them out in terms of things they can see before it happens. You only can get that from experience, so hopefully it comes in handy.”

Riddick is hoping his experience will help everyone, but he should probably be most focused on making the roster because it seems anything could happen. It would be a pretty safe bet that he will be on the roster, but nothing is guaranteed.

Riddick has said he is willing to do anything he can do to help the team, which is exactly the attitude he needs going through the preseason.

“I think there's a versatility there,” Riddick said. ” … You just want to be able to do whatever they need you to do, take some stress off other guys. I just want to show these coaches what I can do and just fit.”

It's important that he proves everything he can do to make sure that he has a spot locked up on the final 53.
