ESPN’s Adam Schefter reports that the Denver Broncos have designated rookie running back Jonah Coleman to return from injured reserve. Coleman was a full participant in Wednesday’s practice, putting him on track for a potential Week 7 return.

Coleman impressed throughout training camp with his physical running style and balance. He should slide in as Denver’s No. 3 running back behind J.K. Dobbins and RJ Harvey, ahead of Tyler Badie, who missed Wednesday’s practice with a thumb injury. With Dobbins ranking 45th out of 54 qualifying running backs in PlayerProfiler’s Yards Created Per Rush metric, the Broncos could turn to Coleman for a spark in their struggling ground game. The rookie flashed in the preseason and again in Week 2, totaling 58 yards and a touchdown on 13 touches against a stout Jaguars defense allowing the fourth-fewest fantasy points to opposing running backs. He’s an intriguing speculative add who could challenge Dobbins for early-down work and is one Dobbins injury away from a potentially significant workload, while Harvey figures to retain his role as the primary receiving back.
