The Broncos designated Jonah Coleman for return from injured reserve, opening his 21-day practice window, according to Ian Rapoport and Adam Schefter. Underdog NFL also reported Coleman (ankle) has his 21-day practice window opened.

What happened

Coleman has been on IR since suffering a high ankle sprain in Week 2, per the Denver Gazette’s Chris Tomasson via Pro Football Rumors. The designation occurred on Wednesday. Coleman now has 21 days to be moved back onto the team’s 53-man roster or be placed on season-ending IR.

Context

The rookie fourth-round pick made notable contributions to the Broncos’ Week 2 win over the Jaguars before it was known he would miss time. Through Week 6, Coleman has 10 carries for 39 rushing yards, one rushing touchdown, and three receptions for 19 receiving yards in two games. He is listed as RB6 on the Broncos’ running back depth chart.

Depth chart

J.K. Dobbins remains RB1 for the Broncos with 81 carries for 270 rushing yards, two rushing touchdowns, and eight receptions for 27 receiving yards this season. RJ Harvey is RB2 with 21 carries for 81 rushing yards, one rushing touchdown, and 23 receptions for 163 receiving yards. Tyler Badie is RB3 with six carries for 22 rushing yards and six receptions for 67 receiving yards.

🏈 Fantasy impact

Coleman is worth stashing in deeper leagues with his 21-day practice window now open. He may not have an immediate role with Dobbins and Harvey ahead of him, but the Broncos have struggled offensively and Coleman showed flashes before his injury. Dobbins and Harvey continue to be the preferred fantasy options in Denver’s backfield.
