Broncos RB R.J. Harvey is unlikely to play vs. the Jaguars
According to ESPN’s lead NFL insider Adam Schefter, Denver Broncos running back R.J. Harvey is unlikely to play vs. the Jacksonville Jaguars later today.
Denver Broncos running back R.J. Harvey, listed as questionable for their Week 2 matchup against the Jacksonville Jaguars due to a hamstring injury, is unlikely to play, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. The second-year back had limited practices over the weekend, but he was able to participate in limited workouts, suggesting a non-long-term injury.
Harvey, an explosive weapon out of the backfield who had 121 total yards and a touchdown on 9 touches against the Jaguars last season, will likely be replaced by starter JK Dobbins. Rookie Jonah Coleman is also expected to see more playing time, with Tyler Badie, the Broncos' trusted pass blocker, likely seeing action on third downs.
This absence is a significant loss for the Broncos' offense, for whom Harvey had been a key contributor.
