Denver Broncos running back J.K. Dobbins has "been fantastic," according to Broncos head coach Sean Payton. The 26-year-old is in his first year with the team and has gotten off to a fast start to the season, rushing for 402 yards and four touchdowns on 77 carries through five games. Dobbins does not offer much as a receiver (six total receptions), but he's been the clear lead rusher in a Broncos backfield that also features RJ Harvey and Tyler Badie. Health has always been a question mark for Dobbins, as he had played in just 22 games over his previous three seasons coming into 2025. However, if he stays healthy, it does not appear he's in any danger of losing his current role in Denver. Dobbins profiles as a must-start fantasy running back in Week 6 against the New York Jets.

According to head coach Aaron Glenn, New York Jets running back Braelon Allen (knee) could miss 8-12 weeks with the MCL sprain he suffered in Week 4's loss to the Miami Dolphins. Reports were that Allen would miss more than the minimum number of required games, but it now appears he'll be out until at least December, with surgery still an option. In the 21-year-old's absence, teammate Isaiah Davis will take over the Jets' RB2 duties behind starter Breece Hall, and the newly-acquired Khalil Herbert will handle the RB3 role with Kene Nwangwu (hamstring) still tending to injury. Fantasy managers can safely drop Allen in all redraft formats as the likelihood of him making an impact to close out the 2025 season remains low.
