RJ Harvey quietly underwent offseason shoulder surgery for a torn labrum suffered in the AFC Championship game against the Patriots, limiting his team reps during OTAs after a rookie campaign featuring 193 touches, 896 scrimmage yards, and 12 total touchdowns.

When J.K. Dobbins was active, Harvey averaged just 7.9 opportunities per game compared to 17.9 opportunities in games Dobbins missed, signaling a usage cap when the backfield is at full strength. With Dobbins re-signed and the Broncos drafting Jonah Coleman, Harvey must fully recover by training camp to preserve his target magnet role in Sean Payton’s offense. Harvey is one of the most popular “fade list” players in fantasy football.
