Through the first two games, Odds Shark has offered up an updated line for Offensive Rookie of the Year and there was a name on the list that should make Denver Broncos fans giddy. Undrafted Phillip Lindsay now has the third best odds of all rookies of nabbing that award come seasons end.

Through two games, Lindsay has compiled 178 yards on just 28 carries for a whopping 6.1 yards per carry. He also has three receptions for 35 yards and a touchdown. Lindsay has shown he has a knack for finding the open lane and getting those positive yards.
If he keeps up this pace, he’ll absolutely win that Offensive Rookie of the Year award.
And yes, I see Courtland Sutton making that list too. He would need to get a lot more targets to start moving up that odds list, though.
