Barring a 488-yard performance from RJ Harvey on Sunday, the Denver Broncos are on the verge of a sixth-straight season without a 1,000-yard rusher, the third-longest active streak in the NFL.
Harvey has 863 yards from scrimmage and 12 total touchdowns this season, but his rushing total stands at 512 yards. Going up against L.A.'s top-ten run defense, Harvey is unlikely to hit 1,000 rushing yards as a rookie.

J.K. Dobbins was well on his way to 1,000 with 772 yards through 10 games until he suffered a foot injury. Before that injury, Dobbins was on pace for a 1,312-yard season in 2025.
Denver's leading rushers over the past six years were Dobbins (772), Javonte Williams (513), Williams (774), Latavius Murray (703), Melvin Gordon (918) and Gordon (986). The team's last 1,000-yard rusher was Phillip Lindsay, who totaled 1,011 yards on the ground in 2019.
Dobbins is currently scheduled to become a free agent in 2026. If he re-signs, Dobbins would get an opportunity to hit 1,000 yards next season. Otherwise, Harvey would be in line to take over RB1 duties.
