The newest infusion of Bronco horsepower was easy to pick out, beyond his 5-foot-10 stature, because he rarely stopped moving. Or talking.

JK Dobbins explains why he signed with the Denver Broncos in NFL free agency, citing Bo Nix, coaching, and team potential as primary reasons.

The Broncos add the veteran and former Charger to join second-round pick R.J. Harvey and other young running backs.

The Denver Broncos are shaking up their running back depth chart, bringing in veteran J.K. Dobbins on a one-year deal. The full contract details are not yet known -- and the signing is not yet official -- but NFL Network (and other outlets) have reported the contract is worth "up to" $5.25 million. The key to that is "up to."

Dobbins agreed to a one-year, $5.25 million contract with the Broncos in free agency, according to NFL Network's Tom Pelissero and Ian Rapoport. Dobbins, 26, spent four years with the Baltimore Ravens before signing a one-year deal with the Chargers ahead of the 2024 season.

The 25-year-old joined Denver's practice squad late in his rookie season in 2022 and scored a 24-yard touchdown catch on his first career touch in the NFL. He then impressed during training camp in 2023, but an injury derailed his chances of getting off the practice squad onto the active roster in his second season.

The Denver Post’s Parker Gabriel wrote on June 9 that there was “no signing imminent” for Dobbins. Broncos head coach Sean Payton praised Dobbins, but also piqued interest with other comments on what Gabriel termed the “fascinating subplot.”
