AutoDraft Pro AI

Running back J.K. Dobbins' injury last year opened the door for R.J. Harvey to earn a full-time role with the Denver Broncos. Harvey took over as the clear lead back, though his efficiency was described as 'just-OK.' Broncos GM George Paton has stated that the team now views Harvey as a three-down back going forward, highlighting the impact of Dobbins' absence on the team's backfield strategy.
