Broncos Agree on Two-Year Deal to Bring J.K. Dobbins Back

Monday, March 9, 1:19 PM

The Denver Broncos reached an agreement with running back J.K. Dobbins (foot) on an undisclosed two-year deal on Monday to bring him back for another season, a source told Mike Klis of 9 News. Dobbins was on track for a career year in 2025 in his first year in Denver before suffering a season-ending foot injury that required surgery. The 27-year-old had 153 carries for 772 yards and four rushing touchdowns in 10 games while sharing touches with rookie second-rounder RJ Harvey. Dobbins also caught 11 passes for 37 yards through the air. Denver certainly liked the production that Dobbins gave them when healthy last year, enough so that they want to run it back again with the injury-prone RB. The former second-rounder in 2020 by the Baltimore Ravens has never played a full season and has also never reached the 1,000-yard mark in five seasons. His return is bad news for Harvey, who was the RB1 for the Broncos after Dobbins' injury. Dobbins will be a risk/reward RB3/flex target in fantasy football drafts this fall. The injury risk will be high for a lot of fantasy managers, especially since Harvey could have a bigger role in Year 2.

Omarion Hampton Set for Breakout 2026?

Thursday, February 19, 8:13 AM

The Los Angeles Chargers selected running back Omarion Hampton 22nd overall in the 2025 NFL Draft, but ankle injuries limited the talented rookie to only nine regular-season games. Even still, the 22-year-old out of North Carolina showed enough in his first season to make him a popular breakout candidate heading into 2026. Following a season-ending injury to Najee Harris in Week 3, Hampton exploded for his best game of the season, with 165 total yards and a touchdown in a Week 4 loss to the Giants. While he would play only five more games for the rest of the year, mostly behind an injury-ravaged offensive line, he continued to run hard, averaging 4.4 yards per carry while staying steadily involved in the passing game. Assuming a full return to health by both Hampton and the line in front of him, the second year back could be knocking on a top-five fantasy finish in Mike McDaniel's offense in 2026.
