After an explosive rookie campaign, Denver Broncos running back Phillip Lindsay is one of five NFL players that have been nominated for the Pepsi Rookie of the Year award on NFL.com.

Lindsay finished the season with 1,037 yards rushing and nine touchdowns while nabbing 35 receptions for 241 more yards and picking up one touchdown through the air.

Lindsay’s lone touchdown reception on the season came in his first NFL game and in Week 2 he followed that up with 107 yards on the ground in a 20-19 win over the Raiders.

Later in the season after the bye week, Lindsay put together his best stretch of games rushing for 346 yards on 44 carries while scoring five touchdowns in only three weeks. During this stretch, Lindsay averaged 7.8 yards per attempt as opposing defenses were left helpless trying to bring down the shifty back.

While those three games in particular stood out, Lindsay’s 5.4 yards per attempt on the season rank him second, behind only Aaron Jones of the Green Bay Packers. Lindsay has done his part to garner Rookie of the Year honors, but now you the fans have to step in and help.
