J.K. Dobbins Gets Real About What's Ailing Broncos' Offense Could the explanation for the Broncos' offensive struggles be as easy as this?

14 HOURS AGO • SI.COM

Grinds out yards, TD in OT win Dobbins rushed 17 times for 41 yards and a touchdown and brought in all three targets for five yards during the Broncos' 17-14 overtime win over the Seahawks on Thursday.

Impact Dobbins was in the customary position of leading the Broncos' ground attack in rush attempts and rushing yards, but he averaged only 2.4 yards per carry against a stingy Seahawks front. Nevertheless, the veteran back made a trip to the end zone for the second consecutive game, going in from four yards out early in the second quarter. After averaging 4.5 yards per carry in a Week 1 loss to the Chiefs, Dobbins has hit a wall in terms of efficiency, but he'll remain the top option in the ground attack for a favorable Week 7 road matchup against the Cardinals on Sunday, Oct. 25.

Scores first TD of season Dobbins recorded 18 carries for 68 yards and one touchdown and gathered in both targets for six yards during Sunday's 23-17 win at the Chargers.

Impact Dobbins easily led both teams in touches with 20, which marked a season high, and he also reached the end zone for the first time in the current campaign. Meanwhile, fellow RB RJ Harvey was contained to three rushes for seven yards, marking his lowest touch count of 2026. Dobbins has received a more consistent workload among the two players with 13.8 touches per game (as opposed to 8.7 per contest for Harvey), making him the more appealing of the two backfield options in Denver.

Generates 52 total yards in loss Dobbins rushed 11 times for 40 yards and brought in both targets for 12 yards in the Broncos' 24-14 loss to the 49ers on Sunday.

Impact Dobbins functioned in his usual lead-back role, but the Broncos eventually had to focus more on the pass in the fourth quarter after falling behind by a 17-6 margin. The veteran back has logged double-digit carries in three straight games, yet he's topped out at 49 rushing yards in terms of a single-game high thus far this season. Dobbins is averaging just 3.5 yards per carry and has a scant three receptions for 16 yards over the first four games, which doesn't give him much momentum as he heads into a Week 5 road divisional matchup against the Chargers.

Doesn't do much with 17 carries Dobbins rushed 17 times for 49 yards while catching one of two targets for four yards in Sunday's 30-26 win over the Rams.

Impact Dobbins is up to 35 rushing attempts through three weeks, while no other Denver running back has exceeded 10. Jonah Coleman (ankle) was placed on injured reserve Saturday, while RJ Harvey has more targets (11) than carries (five). Dobbins has yet to score on the ground after recording four rushing touchdowns last season, and he has been a non-factor in the passing game, as Sunday's targets were Dobbins' first two of the season. On the bright side, Dobbins has recovered from previous hip and hamstring concerns and is poised to keep leading Denver's ground game in Week 4 at San Francisco.

Puts forth full practice Dobbins (hip) was listed as a full participant on Thursday's injury report.

Impact Dobbins sustained an apparent hamstring injury in Sunday's victory over the Jaguars and was ultimately limited at Wednesday's session with a hip issue, but with him getting in a full session Thursday neither is an issue any longer. Backfield mate RJ Harvey (hamstring) also practiced fully Thursday while rookie Jonah Coleman (ankle) sat out a second straight day,

Set for another practice Dobbins (hip) was spotted on the field for the media-access portion of Thursday's practice, Chris Tomasson of The Denver Gazette reports.

Impact Dobbins opened Week 3 prep as a limited participant Wednesday, so if he can upgrade to full activity Thursday, it would clear up any concern about his status heading into Sunday's game against the Rams. He's one of three Denver running backs on the injury report this week, as RJ Harvey (hamstring) was limited and Jonah Coleman (ankle) didn't participate in the team's first practice of the week.

Limited Wednesday Dobbins (hip) was limited at practice Wednesday, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official site reports.

Impact As for the other injured Broncos running backs, RJ Harvey (hamstring) also was a limited participant, while Jonah Coleman didn't practice due to a sprained ankle. Dobbins himself suffered a hamstring injury during the team's Week 2 win against the Jaguars, and he'll now have two more practices to prove his health ahead of the weekend.

SEPTEMBER 23 • ROTOWIRE

On track to practice in Week 3 Dobbins, who exited Sunday's 20-13 win over the Jaguars due to a hamstring injury, is expected to practice this week, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Impact Dobbins logged 21 snaps and carried 10 times for 36 yards Sunday before checking out of the game when the hamstring issue cropped up early in the second half. Initial evaluations on Dobbins indicated that he avoided any sort of major injury, and he looks like he'll have a chance at suiting up this weekend against the Rams if he continues to make progress over the next few days. The Broncos will issue their first Week 3 injury report later Wednesday, when the extent of Dobbins' participation in practice will be revealed.
