Broncos Get More Bad News at Running Back After Latest Injury Update

The Denver Broncos are facing a growing list of injuries to their running back corps as they prepare for their upcoming Week 3 game against the Los Angeles Rams. RJ Harvey was absent from the Broncos' 20-13 victory over the Jacksonville Jaguars last weekend due to a hamstring injury he sustained during their Week 1 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs.

J.K. Dobbins also missed Sunday's game after suffering a slight hamstring issue. Rookie running back Jonah Coleman had a strong outing in Week 2's win over the Jaguars, rushing for 39 yards and a touchdown while contributing 19 yards on three catches, but now he's dealing with a sprained ankle he sustained during Sunday's game, according to ESPN NFL insider Adam Schefter.

Despite these setbacks, Denver RB RJ Harvey is making progress in his hamstring recovery, and rookie J.K. Dobbins is expected to practice this week, which could see him playing in the Sunday night game. However, the Broncos may be severely limited at the running back position, with Tyler Badie, an inexperienced player, as their fourth option. The Rams' game kicks off at 8:20 p.m. ET on Sunday.
