Broncos' J.K. Dobbins: Hoping to play Week 3
The Broncos are optimistic that Dobbins sustained only a minor hamstring injury during Sunday's 20-13 win over the Jaguars and will be available to play Week 3 versus the Rams, James Palmer of Bleacher Report reports.
Dobbins has been far from a picture of durability during his seven-year NFL career, but early indications are that his latest setback on the health front isn't anything significant. The Broncos haven't provided word that Dobbins will be sent in for an MRI, and the team likely will use his activity in practices Wednesday through Friday to determine his availability heading into next Sunday's game. With RJ Harvey (hamstring) inactive against the Jaguars and with Dobbins making an early exit, rookie Jonah Coleman (10 carries for 39 yards and a touchdown, three catches for 19 yards) ended up finishing the contest as the Broncos' top option out of the backfield.

Broncos' J.K. Dobbins: Looking good after hamstring scare
The Broncos believe that Dobbins' injured hamstring is "good" heading into next Sunday's game against the Rams, Tom Pelissero of Netflix reports.
The latest news on Dobbins aligns with what James Palmer of Bleacher Report previously relayed following the Broncos' 20-13 win over the Jaguars on Sunday, when Dobbins made an early exit due to a "slight" hamstring issue. While the Broncos are optimistic that Dobbins won't have to miss any time, his activity during practices Wednesday through Friday will ultimately determine whether he suits up against the Rams. Denver could have all of its key backfield members available for Week 3, as head coach Sean Payton suggested during his press conference Monday that RJ Harvey (hamstring) could return to action after sitting out against the Jaguars, per Nick Kosmider of The Athletic.

Broncos' J.K. Dobbins: Suffers hamstring injury
Dobbins exited Sunday's game versus the Jaguars due to a hamstring injury, Sam Jane of The Denver Post reports.
Dobbins favored his hamstring as he left the field in the second half and promptly visited the sideline tent. While he was spotted with his helmet after being evaluated, he may not return to the Broncos' Week 2 contest, and if he doesn't, he'll finish with 10 carries for 36 yards. With direct backup RB RJ Harvey (hamstring) inactive Sunday, rookie fourth-round pick Jonah Coleman and Tyler Badie are left as the healthy options at the position.

Broncos' J.K. Dobbins: Solid with eight touches
Dobbins rushed eight times for 36 yards and wasn't targeted in the Broncos' 31-10 loss to the Chiefs on Monday night.
The highlight of Dobbins' relatively unremarkable night came early in the third quarter, when he changed direction shortly after taking the handoff and rumbled around left end for a 17-yard gain. The veteran back otherwise found running room difficult to come by against a dominant Chiefs defense, and Dobbins' rushing opportunities were notably limited overall due to game script. There will be much more cohesive offensive performances for the Broncos this season, and Dobbins should be in line for a bigger workload during Denver's home opener Week 2 against the Jaguars.

Broncos' J.K. Dobbins: Ready for Week 1
Head coach Sean Payton said Wednesday that Dobbins is "moving well" and on track to play Week 1 against the Chiefs on Monday, Sept. 14, Chris Tomasson of The Denver Gazette reports.
Dobbins' practice participation in training camp was limited by a soft-tissue injury, which also caused the veteran running back to be held out of all three of the Broncos' preseason games out of caution. There's no indication that the issue is long-term, and Dobbins heads into Week 1 leading a backfield group that also consists of RJ Harvey, Tyler Badie and rookie fourth-rounder Jonah Coleman. Dobbins signed a two-year deal with the Broncos in March following his 2025 campaign with the Chargers, when he turned 153 carries into 772 yards (5.0 YPC) and four touchdowns while adding 11 catches (on 14 targets) for 37 yards across 10 regular-season games.

Broncos' J.K. Dobbins: Doesn't play Friday
Dobbins did not play in the Broncos' 33-13 preseason loss to the Packers on Friday.
With Dobbins observing Friday's exhibition contest in street clothes, it was RJ Harvey who drew the start while Jaleel McLaughlin and Cody Schrader led all Broncos running backs in offensive snaps. Dobbins was cleared to return to practice earlier this week after recovering from a soft-tissue injury, but it's unclear whether he'll play in the Broncos' preseason finale against the Vikings this Friday. The 2020 second-rounder figures to be the Broncos' top option out of the backfield this season, with Harvey and rookie fourth-rounder Jonah Coleman also in the mix for reps.

Broncos' J.K. Dobbins: Suited up in full pads Tuesday
Dobbins (undisclosed) was in full pads for Tuesday's practice, Chris Tomasson of The Denver Gazette reports.
Dobbins left last Monday's session due to what eventually was termed a soft-tissue injury by coach Sean Payton, but he's stayed active since then and Zac Stevens of TheDNVR.com noted that the running back looked sharp Tuesday during drills. Looking ahead, Dobbins is on track to reprise his role at the top of a Denver backfield that also includes 2025 second-rounder RJ Harvey and 2026 fourth-rounder Jonah Coleman. As long as he can stay healthy, which is far from guaranteed in his case, Dobbins should see enough of a workload to merit fantasy lineup attention, but the continued presence of Harvey, who will also see his share of touches, as well as Coleman possibly emerging as a factor, are variables that could hamper Dobbins' weekly ceiling.

Broncos' J.K. Dobbins: Takes part in Monday's session
Dobbins (undisclosed) participated in Monday's practice, Zac Stevens of TheDNVR.com reports.
Dobbins left last Monday's session due to what eventually was termed a soft-tissue injury by coach Sean Payton. The issue didn't stop Dobbins from taking part in individual drills last Tuesday and Wednesday, but the Broncos held him out of Friday's preseason contest in Atlanta. Assuming he continues to make progress, he may be a consideration to play in this Friday's exhibition contest against the Packers.

Broncos' J.K. Dobbins: Not in uniform Friday
Dobbins isn't in line to play in Friday's preseason game in Atlanta, Parker Gabriel of The Denver Post reports.
Dobbins made an early exit from practice Monday due to a soft-tissue injury, and while he went through individual drills Tuesday and Wednesday, the Broncos will exercise caution with their presumed top running back. His next chance for exhibition action is next Friday versus the Packers.
