Who's playing RB for the Broncos on Sunday Night Football? How COMMITTED to the run can they be?
On The Drive, Zach Bye and Phillip Lindsay dive into the Broncos’ running‑back emergency heading into Sunday Night Football. J.K. Dobbins went down late in the third quarter vs Jacksonville, RJ Harvey didn’t play at all because of a hamstring injury, and now rookie Jonah Coleman is dealing with an ankle sprain.
With all three backs banged up, Phil wonders how committed Davis Webb can realistically be to the run — and whether Denver can function offensively if they’re forced to abandon it. Who starts? Can they run effectively? And if they can’t… can they still beat the Rams?
This is the full breakdown of tension, uncertainty, and the growing concern that Denver’s backfield could define the entire primetime matchup.
