It’s Time For A Coaching Change In Dallas; Lions QB Jared Goff Silences The Noise

Surpassed by rookie in win over KC Dobbins carried the ball seven times for 13 yards in Sunday's 28-24 win over Kansas City.

Impact While the veteran RB got the start, by the end of the game Dobbins had fully given way to rookie Jonah Coleman, who wound up delivering 104 scrimmage yards on 15 touches and scored the game-winning touchdown. With RJ Harvey (knee) on IR, Dobbins will still have a role in the Denver backfield, but Coleman made a compelling case Sunday to become the team's new No. 1 back. Dobbins should at least be more productive in Week 9, even on limited volume, against a Panthers defense that's among the worst in the league against the run.

Best Fits For Jonathan Taylor: Which 6 Teams Make The Most Sense For Colts RB?

No Harvey for Week 8 tilt Dobbins and Jonah Coleman will lead the Broncos' backfield against the Chiefs on Sunday due to the absence of RJ Harvey (knee), Eric DiLalla of the Broncos' official site reports.

Impact Harvey popped up on Thursday's injury report due to a knee injury and was unable to practice Friday, which resulted in him being ruled out for Sunday's AFC West tilt. Dobbins found the end zone in Week 7 against the Cardinals but was less efficient in his carries than Coleman, although the duo could have a fairly even split in backfield duties in Harvey's absence. Through seven regular-season games,. Dobbins has turned 87 carries into 293 yards (3.4 YPC) and three touchdowns while adding eight catches on nine targets for 27 yards/

Extends TD streak but outplayed by Coleman Dobbins rushed six times for 23 yards and a touchdown but wasn't targeted in Sunday's 30-16 win over the Cardinals.

Impact Dobbins extended his touchdown streak to three games with a one-yard rushing score to end the third quarter, but he was far less efficient on the ground than Jonah Coleman, who rushed nine times for 54 yards in his return from an ankle injury, averaging 6.0 YPC to Dobbins' 3.8. Coleman and RJ Harvey each had two catches, with Harvey breaking free for a 52-yard touchdown on one of those receptions, while Dobbins hasn't exceeded 12 receiving yards in a game this season. With Coleman likely to claim a chunk of the rushing opportunities moving forward, Dobbins profiles as a touchdown-dependent Week 8 fantasy option against the Chiefs.

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.
