Denver Broncos running back Ronnie Hillman has been benched by head coach John Fox for his side's clash with the Washington Redskins, according to a report.
The 22-year-old has fumbled in back-to-back weeks for the Broncos and one of his errors proved to be costly as he dropped the ball on the goalline, which cost his side six points in their defeat to the Indianapolis Colts.
Fox has told Hillman that he will not be active for the clash with the Redskins and he will be replaced by fellow back CJ Anderson, reports the Denver Post.
The Broncos are 6-1 in their season going into week eight.
