Via the official Denver Broncos Twitter, “The NFL will name Eddie Royal as the AFC Special Teams Player of the Month for October.”
What a great honor for a special player. On Monday night in week 6, Eddie was instrumental in completing a 3-phase total team effort for a win over the San Diego Chargers by taking a kickoff return 93 yards and a punt return 71 yards for touchdowns.
Although he wasn’t utilized as much as a receiver in the game, he absolutely made a difference and is showing why the Broncos were so high on him out of college in 2008. This is the first time in team history that they have had 2 players named AFC special teams player of the month in the same season. In September, kicker Matt Prater was given the honor.
Congratulations Eddie, it is a pleasure to have you in Orange and Blue (shut up, I know the Brown and Yellow ones are hideous)!
