Denver Broncos offensive quality control coach Favian Upshaw is set to coach the National Team running backs at the Senior Bowl in Mobile, Alabama this week, the all-star game announced on Saturday.
Upshaw will now get a close look at NT running backs Cameron Skattebo (Arizona State), LeQuint Allen (Syracuse), Donovan Edwards (Michigan), Ollie Gordon (OSU), Jo’quavious Marks (USC), Damien Martinez (Miami), Kalel Mullings (Michigan) and Bhayshul Tuten (Virginia Tech).
With Javonte Williams scheduled to become a free agent in March, the Broncos are expected to target running backs this offseason.
Skattebo (5-11, 216 pounds) is arguably the most notable RB that Upshaw will work with at the Senior Bowl. The 22-year-old senior is projected to be a third-round pick in the NFL draft.
Upshaw played quarterback at Georgia Southern before transitioning to coaching. After initially coaching at the high school level, he spent time at Tulane, Savannah State and Georgia Southern before jumping to the NFL with the Broncos in 2023.
The 2025 Senior Bowl will be played at 2:30 p.m. ET (12:30 p.m. MT) on Saturday, Feb. 1. The game will be televised on NFL Network.
