Broncos Re-sign Dobbins, Boost Ground Game

Denver Broncos Re-sign J.K. Dobbins: A Promising Move for Their Ground Game

The Denver Broncos made a surprising move by re-signing running back J.K. Dobbins to a two-year deal worth $20 million, including $8 million fully guaranteed. Despite expectations to land a top-tier running back like Kenneth Walker III or Travis Etienne, the Broncos opted for familiarity.

Dobbins, 27, had a strong season in Denver before a foot injury cut it short. He averaged 5 yards per carry, led the team with 772 rushing yards, and contributed 809 total yards from scrimmage and 4 touchdowns in just 10 games.

While experts at The Athletic gave the move a B- grade, acknowledging Dobbinss vision and patience, they also highlighted his injury history, which includes missing 27 games over the last three seasons.

The Broncos plan to add another running back through free agency or the draft to complement Dobbins and R.J. Harvey. Alvin Kamara, who thrived under head coach Sean Payton, could be a potential target.

With Dobbins back and healthy, the Broncos ground game looks promising as they build depth for the upcoming season.
