    Broncos' RJ Harvey: Studying film for Year 2

    RJ Harvey said he has been watching film of Christian McCaffrey, Jahmyr Gibbs and Kenneth Walker as he works to improve in Year 2, Kevin Patra of NFL.com reports.Harvey flashed playmaking ability as a rookie but struggled with consistency, finishing with under 200 total touches even with J.K. Dobbins missing the Denver Broncos' final seven regular-season games. Denver's decision to re-sign Dobbins and draft Jonah Coleman in the fourth round points toward another committee, but Harvey could carve out more passing-game work if he's able to prove greater comfort in coach Sean Payton's system. Patra highlights Harvey as a candidate to earn a potential Joker-type role in Year 2, which would provide intriguing PPR upside even if the Broncos' crowded backfield may cap his ultimate upside.

    Broncos' RJ Harvey: Full go for minicamp

    Denver Broncos coach Sean Payton said Tuesday that RJ Harvey (shoulder) is a "full go" for mandatory minicamp, Zac Stevens of TheDNVR.com reports.Harvey underwent an offseason procedure to repair a torn labrum in his shoulder, but the 2025 second-round pick already appears cleared for all practice activities. Payton said the running back is having a "real good" offseason so far. Harvey projects to be a key playmaker out of the backfield for Denver in Year 2, though he faces notable competition for touches from veteran J.K. Dobbins and rookie fourth-round pick Jonah Coleman. While suiting up for all 17 regular-season games as a rookie, Harvey rushed 146 times for 540 yards and seven touchdowns and secured 47 of 58 targets for 356 yards and another five scores.

    Broncos' RJ Harvey: Bouncing back from shoulder issue

    RJ Harvey reportedly underwent an offseason procedure to repair a torn labrum in his shoulder that he sustained during Denver's season-ending AFC Championship Game loss to New England, according to Luca Evans of The Denver Post.Evans also notes that while Harvey was practicing during the Denver Broncos' OTAs, he didn't do much in the process. With that in mind, the running back's participation level in the team's upcoming mandatory minicamp, and then also in training camp, will be worth monitoring, but at this stage there's nothing to suggest his regular-season status will be impacted. Looking ahead to the coming campaign, Harvey is slated to maintain a key role in a Denver backfield committee that also is set to include J.K. Dobbins and rookie fourth-rounder Jonah Coleman.

    Broncos' RJ Harvey: Grinds out 59 total yards in loss

    RJ Harvey rushed 13 times for 37 yards and brought in four of six targets for 22 yards in the Denver Broncos' 10-7 loss to the Patriots in Sunday's AFC Championship Game.Harvey unsurprisingly found running room at a premium against a tough Patriots defense and weather conditions that deteriorated as the game went on. However, the rookie put together a couple of productive runs and also made significant contributions as a receiver, finishing tied with Marvin Mims for the team lead in receptions and targets. Harvey put together an encouraging rookie season that saw him handle the lead-back role down the stretch in the absence of J.K. Dobbins (IR, foot), and he lines up to continue helming the Broncos backfield in 2026.

    Broncos' RJ Harvey: Makes mark as receiver

    RJ Harvey rushed six times for 20 yards and brought in five of six targets for 46 yards in the Denver Broncos' 33-30 divisional-round overtime win over the Bills on Saturday.Harvey wasn't given many opportunities to take advantage of what had been a vulnerable Bills run defense, with his carry total serving as his lowest since Week 10, when J.K. Dobbins (IR-foot) was still serving as the Broncos' lead back. However, Harvey did make an impact as a receiver, finishing with the second-most receptions and third-most receiving yards and targets on the afternoon for the Broncos. Harvey will next turn his attention to an AFC Championship Game matchup Sunday, Jan. 25 against either the Texans or Patriots, a game Denver will have to navigate without Bo Nix, who suffered a broken ankle in overtime Saturday.

    Broncos' RJ Harvey: Struggles with 16 touches

    RJ Harvey was held to 28 yards on 15 carries while catching one of four targets for five yards in Sunday's 19-3 win over the Chargers.Harvey was bottled up from the get-go Sunday, averaging less than 2.0 yards per carry while failing to make an impact as a receiver. The rookie's poor performance was compounded by his inability to extend the five-game scoring streak he entered the contest with. Harvey put together a strong fantasy campaign with 896 combined yards from scrimmage and 12 total touchdowns across 17 games. The 2025 second-round pick started the year as a backup and took over for J.K. Dobbins (knee) as the starter in Week 11 after the latter was placed on injured reserve. Harvey should continue leading Denver's backfield when the AFC's No. 1 seed resumes play in the divisional round of the playoffs.

    Broncos' RJ Harvey: Inefficient as rusher

    RJ Harvey rushed the ball 14 times for 43 yards in Thursday's 20-13 win over the Chiefs. He added five receptions (on six targets) for 33 yards and a touchdown.Harvey regained a larger split of work out of Denver's backfield, out-touching Jaleel McLaughlin, 19-7. However, the good news mostly ended there, as five of Harvey's 14 carries went for two or fewer yards. He did manage to perform better as a pass catcher, picking up 13 yards on a dump off midway through the third quarter before also catching the game-winning touchdown from one yard away late in the final quarter. Harvey has been inefficient as a runner for most of the season, but he has scored in five straight games and seven of his last nine contests to give him consistent fantasy value.

    Broncos' RJ Harvey: Several big plays in loss

    RJ Harvey rushed the ball seven times for 50 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 34-20 loss to the Jaguars. He added four receptions on five targets for 71 yards.Head coach Sean Payton promised to get Jaleel McLaughlin more involved in this game, and that split came to fruition. Harvey saw only seven carries as opposed to five for McLaughlin, though Harvey still got the job done as a rusher thanks to a tough 38-yard touchdown run, during which he bounced off several defenders and then out-raced a few more to reach the end zone. The Denver Broncos were forced into a pass-heavy offense while chasing the score, which also helped Harvey rack up a season-best 71 yards through the air. While his workload will be worth monitoring as he continues to work through a rib injury, Harvey showed explosiveness on limited touches that was previously missing from his game.

    Broncos' RJ Harvey: Logs full practice Wednesday

    RJ Harvey (ribs) practiced fully Wednesday, Aric DiLalla of the Denver Broncos' official site reports.Harvey sustained a rib injury late in Sunday's 34-26 win over the Packers, a game in which the running back logged 19 carries for 65 yards and a touchdown. Per Parker Gabriel of The Denver Post, head coach Sean Payton noted earlier Wednesday that Harvey was "doing good" in his recovery from the rib injury and implied that he had no concerns on that front. With a full practice in the books confirming that notion, Harvey is slated to maintain his lead role out of the backfield this weekend against the 10-4 Jaguars, who have surrendered league-low average of 86.3 rushing yards per game.

    Broncos' RJ Harvey: Should be fine to play

    Denver Broncos coach Sean Payton said Wednesday that he isn't worried about RJ Harvey's rib injury, Parker Gabriel of The Denver Post reports.Harvey missed the final few snaps of Sunday's 34-26 win over Green Bay after suffering a rib injury late in the fourth quarter. He's practicing Wednesday, with Payton suggesting afterward that the recent signing of RB Cody Schrader is unrelated to Harvey's injury, per Zac Stevens of TheDNVR.com. The Broncos seemingly expect their rookie RB to start again this Sunday against Jacksonville following back-to-back games with a 68 percent snap share and 17-plus carries. Harvey did lose a fumble this past Sunday, but Payton attributed it to a great defensive play and said there was no issue with the way Harvey was carrying the ball. In other words, Harvey should be busy again this Sunday so long as he overcomes the rib injury and continues practicing this week.
