From the episode

Dobbins, they said, Hey, I don't know if you could really carry this workload for us for the entire season...Dobbins did not have the ceiling and the, the, the season, even when you just look at his output that I think people believe he did...they got him at a good price and he was a value piece for them.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalRole

Broncos' backfield additions signal durability concerns about Dobbins' workload capacity.

Denver brought in Jonah Coleman and RJ Harvey because they questioned whether Dobbins could carry the full workload for the entire season. JJ Zachariason notes that Dobbins did not have the ceiling and season output that people believed he had last year; while he was a value piece at a good price, the team's decision to add competition suggests durability or workload concerns. Dobbins was brought back but the move signals the Broncos' lack of confidence in him as a workhorse.
