J.K. Dobbins Could Return Late Season, Per Coach Payton

Denver Broncos head coach Sean Payton indicated Wednesday that running back J.K. Dobbins (foot) might have an opportunity to return toward the end of the season. Payton, who was discussing linebacker Drew Sanders' similar recovery timeline, clarified that both players are still "a ways out." This potential return is more likely to align with the real-life NFL playoffs rather than the fantasy football playoffs, as Dobbins continues his recovery from a foot injury.
