Broncos running back RJ Harvey is officially inactive for Sunday afternoon’s home game, a serious hit to their Week 2 lineup.

Harvey’s Absence Means a New Look for Denver’s Backfield

The word came down Sunday morning that Harvey, previously listed as questionable with a hamstring injury, wouldn’t suit up. It got stamped as official 90 minutes before kickoff in Denver. This means a new look for the Broncos’ backfield today. J.K. Dobbins, fourth-round pick Jonah Coleman, and Tyler Badie are the guys stepping up to carry the load. How will that trio perform without Harvey in the mix? We’re about to find out.

More Inactives For The Broncos Today

Harvey isn’t the only one sitting out for Denver. Quarterback Sam Ehlinger, wide receiver Marvin Mims, offensive lineman Kage Casey, tight end Dallen Bentley, defensive end Jordan Jackson, and defensive lineman Tyler Onyedim are also on the inactive list for Week 2. That’s a lot of depth gone for the home team.

Jaguars Are Missing Key Players Too

The Jaguars have their own inactive list for this game, too. They’ve deactivated quarterback Quinn Ewers, tight end Tanner Koziol, wide receiver CJ Williams, safety Jalen Huskey, linebacker Jack Kiser, offensive lineman Daniel Faalele, and defensive end Wesley Williams. Both teams are dealing with some key absences today.

With Harvey sidelined by that hamstring injury, all eyes are gonna be on Dobbins, Coleman, and Badie to see who steps up in the Broncos’ running game. It’s Week 2, and we’re already seeing key players out. Get ready for some adjustments on the field in Denver!
