Yahoo Sports NFL on J.K. Dobbins

ArticleBroncos at Chiefs: The No Bull ReviewSeptember 16, 2026

From the article

JK Dobbins averaged 4.5 ypc, and RJ Harvey averaged 6 (small sample size). It seems like we maybe could have done better than 30% of the plays on the night being runs if we wanted to.

Dobbins averaged 4.5 YPC but was underutilized with only 30% run rate.

JK Dobbins averaged 4.5 yards per carry in Week 1 despite the Broncos running only 6 plays in the first half when the game was within one score; the offense ran only 30% of plays as runs despite having effective running backs, suggesting underutilization of the ground game.
