Glimpses of Troy Franklin's arrival for the Denver Broncos were fleeting during his rookie season. On Saturday against the Cardinals, he put his potential Year 2 jump on full display, collecting four receptions for 67 yards and two touchdowns.

Broncos quarterback Bo Nix, who played with Franklin at Oregon, said earlier this offseason that the receiver is more comfortable now that he knows the scheme going into his second season. Nix did not play against the Cardinals, but backup quarterback Jarrett Stidham threw two touchdown passes to Franklin in the win.

Broncos head coach Sean Payton said recently that the team is capable of winning a Super Bowl and their chances of pulling that off will be better if some players take big strides from where they were last season.
