2024: A position- and college-switcher, Harvey (5’8/205) Harvey didn’t play much as a 2020 sophomore and missed his entire 2021 junior season with a torn ACL. He finally cracked the lineup in 2022 and showed potential with 796 yards at 6.9 yards per pop. He upped that total to 1,416 in 2023 and hit the stratosphere last year with a 232/1,577/22 rushing line.
What’s changed: Harvey also topped 200 receiving yards in each of his final three seasons and notched a trio of aerial scores in 2024. Harvey plays bigger than his modest size, as evidenced by his elite touchdown production, and he has excelled in the face of high volume. He has three-down potential, but the Broncos have made it clear he will start out as a pass-catching back and take it from there.
Outlook: J.K. Dobbins was signed in June as a potential early-down complement if Harvey isn’t ready to bang between the tackles in September. Disappointing, though Dobbins is the kind of veteran competition you want if you are fighting for work as a rookie. Harvey’s summer ADP as a clear-cut RB2 was maybe a tad aspirational, but there is so much upside for a player whose baseline is being the pass-catching back in Sean Payton’s offense.
