The Broncos placed RB Jonah Coleman on IR, knocking him out for the next 4 games. ESPN's Adam Schefter reports that Coleman suffered a high-ankle sprain in the Week 2 win over the Jaguars but is expected back when first eligible in Week 7. This injury frustratingly went unreported after last Sunday's game, and the severity went unreported until now. Coleman is worth keeping stashed on fantasy rosters if possible, but he won't have a chance to be a factor until the second half of the season. RBs J.K. Dobbins and R.J. Harvey are safer short-term fantasy bets with Coleman out.

Broncos RBs J.K. Dobbins (hip) and R.J. Harvey (hamstring) are off the final injury report for Sunday night’s game vs. the Rams. Both guys were full participants in practice on Thursday and Friday. RB Jonah Coleman (ankle) has been ruled out, so this backfield should look similar in terms of workload split to Week 1, when Dobbins out-carried Harvey 8 to 3 but Harvey saw all 4 RB targets.

Add Jonah Coleman to the list of injured Broncos RBs. Per ESPN's Adam Schefter, Coleman sprained an ankle in the Week 2 win over the Jaguars. His status for Sunday's game vs. the Rams is uncertain. Meanwhile, RB R.J. Harvey is "making progress" with his hamstring injury, and the Broncos "received good news" on RB J.K. Dobbins' hamstring, according to Schefter. Dobbins is expected to practice this week, which seemingly puts him in line to play against the Rams. We'll see if this muddy backfield clears up at all over the next few days.

Broncos RB J.K. Dobbins suffered a hamstring injury in the second half Sunday's game vs. the Jaguars. He's officially questionable to return, but don't expect to see him back out there. With RB R.J. Harvey inactive with his own hamstring injury, Denver is down to RBs Jonah Coleman and Tyler Badie.

After dealing with a soft tissue injury during training camp, Broncos head coach Sean Payton says that J.K. Dobbins is moving well and ready to go for the season, per Chris Tomasson of the Denver Gazette. Dobbins appears to be a full-go as the team opens their season next Monday night against the Chiefs.

Broncos RB J.K. Dobbins took part in individual drills Tuesday, according to The Denver Gazette's Chris Tomasson, before spending the rest of practice on the sideline. He's dealing with a soft-tissue injury he suffered Monday.

Broncos RB J.K. Dobbins left Monday's practice with what HC Sean Payton called a soft-tissue injury. Payton didn't offer any more details and didn't sound overly concerned, but this certainly bears monitoring with Dobbins' lengthy injury history.

The Broncos are nearing an agreement to re-sign RB J.K. Dobbins, according to beat writer Zac Stevens. Dobbins ran for 772 yards and four TDs on 5.0 yards per carry across 10 games for Denver last year. His season ended in Week 10 with a foot injury that required surgery, although it seemed like Dobbins had a chance to make it back had the Broncos reached the Super Bowl.

The Broncos are designating RB J.K. Dobbins to return from IR, ESPN's Adam Schefter reports. Dobbins will practice this week and "has a chance" to play vs. the Patriots in Sunday's AFC Championship, per Schefter. Dobbins has been sidelined since suffering a foot injury in Week 10 that required surgery. We'll keep an eye on his status throughout the week. We'd be surprised if he played a big role in his first action since early November, but his presence would certainly add downside to RB R.J. Harvey's fantasy profile.

Broncos RB J.K. Dobbins needs surgery for his foot injury and will likely miss the rest of the season, ESPN's Adam Schefter reports. Dobbins suffered the foot injury on a hip-drop tackle during Denver's Week 10 win over the Raiders. NFL Network reports that it's a "ligament issue" and calls the surgery season-ending.

Broncos RB J.K. Dobbins (foot) is out for Sunday’s game vs. the Chiefs. He’s dealing with a “significant” foot injury and is expected to be sidelined “for the foreseeable future,” NFL Network reports. We’ll see if Dobbins lands on IR on Saturday. His absence should mean an expanded early-down role for RB R.J. Harvey. Denver only has RBs Tyler Badie and Jaleel McLaughlin behind him. Harvey checks in 22nd in the Week 11 RB rankings in a tough matchup against Kansas City.

Broncos RB J.K. Dobbins (foot) did not practice on Wednesday. While we don't have a firm update on Dobbins' injury, the tea leaves suggest he'll miss multiple games. That should mean an expanded early-down role for RB R.J. Harvey. Denver only has Tyler Badie and Jaleel McLaughlin behind him. Harvey gets a tough draw on Sunday against Kansas City's seventh-ranked RB defense, but the rookie sits 22nd in the Week 11 RB rankings.
