Should I Start J.K. Dobbins?

Denver Broncos running back J.K. Dobbins (leg) suffered from leg cramps in Week 2 rather than a hamstring injury, as originally reported, per Mike Klis of 9NEWS. Klis writes that there is "optimism the team dodged a serious setback." The reporting from Klis further confirms speculation that Dobbins avoided a major injury and should be available for Denver's Week 3 matchup against the Los Angeles Rams. The 27-year-old has had a quiet start to the season, recording 72 rushing yards on 18 carries across two games. If fellow Broncos back RJ Harvey (hamstring) can return from the hamstring injury that sidelined him in Week 2, Denver could operate a three-way backfield split between Dobbins, Harvey, and rookie Jonah Coleman. With the workloads uncertain for all three Broncos backs, fantasy managers may want to avoid starting any of them in Week 3.
