Broncos RB R.J. Harvey has played well in the passing game in OTAs so far, according to both his teammates and Denver media. Harvey caught a modest 39 balls over the last two seasons at Central Florida, although he averaged a big 12.9 yards per catch.
Broncos HC Sean Payton has indicated recently that he wants to get RB Audric Estime more touches this season than the fifth-round pick got as a rookie.
The Broncos selected UCF RB RJ Harvey in Round 2 of the 2025 NFL Draft. An ACL tear threatened his football career in 2021, but Harvey’s perseverance paid off. Over the past three seasons, he’s totaled 3,789 rushing yards, 720 receiving yards, and 47 total TDs. Though he is under 5’8, Harvey’s home run ability, combined with soft hands and explosion, makes him an intriguing RB at the pro level. His NFL Combine performance only confirmed his dynamic skill set. The UCF notched a 91st percentile broad jump, an 85th percentile vertical, and a 92nd percentile forty-yard dash. Harvey has also been mentioned as an RB favorite of top draft analysts like NFL Media’s Daniel Jeremiah and The Athletic’s Dane Brugler.
