| The Denver Broncos are opening the window for running back J.K. Dobbins to return to practice this week and potentially play against the New England Patriots in the AFC Championship Game, sources told ESPN's Adam Schefter on Monday. (ESPN.com - Jeff Legwold)
FFToday's Take: While RJ Harvey has had his moments (and certainly scored his fair share of touchdowns), his overall production as a rusher in eight games since Dobbins' injury has been poor (346 yards, 3.4 YPC). Can Dobbins do better in his first game back after such a long way off? It seems unlikely, but Denver will also need all hands on deck after losing Bo Nix (ankle) for the season in the Divisional Round. While one of the two backs could see enough volume against the Patriots in the AFC Championship to be worth a play in DFS, it seems more likely that the Broncos will just struggle offensively.
