Harvey rushed 13 times for 37 yards and brought in four of six targets for 22 yards in the Broncos' 10-7 loss to the Patriots in Sunday's AFC Championship Game.
EDGE Analysis
Harvey unsurprisingly found running room at a premium against a tough Patriots defense and weather conditions that deteriorated as the game went on. However, the rookie put together a couple of productive runs and also made significant contributions as a receiver, finishing tied with Marvin Mims for the team lead in receptions and targets. Harvey put together an encouraging rookie season that saw him handle the lead-back role down the stretch in the absence of J.K. Dobbins (IR, foot), and he lines up to continue helming the Broncos backfield in 2026.

Harvey rushed six times for 20 yards and brought in five of six targets for 46 yards in the Broncos' 33-30 divisional-round overtime win over the Bills on Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
Harvey wasn't given many opportunities to take advantage of what had been a vulnerable Bills run defense, with his carry total serving as his lowest since Week 10, when J.K. Dobbins (IR-foot) was still serving as the Broncos' lead back. However, Harvey did make an impact as a receiver, finishing with the second-most receptions and third-most receiving yards and targets on the afternoon for the Broncos. Harvey will next turn his attention to an AFC Championship Game matchup Sunday, Jan. 25 against either the Texans or Patriots, a game Denver will have to navigate without Bo Nix, who suffered a broken ankle in overtime Saturday.

Harvey was held to 28 yards on 15 carries while catching one of four targets for five yards in Sunday's 19-3 win over the Chargers.
EDGE Analysis
Harvey was bottled up from the get-go Sunday, averaging less than 2.0 yards per carry while failing to make an impact as a receiver. The rookie's poor performance was compounded by his inability to extend the five-game scoring streak he entered the contest with. Harvey put together a strong fantasy campaign with 896 combined yards from scrimmage and 12 total touchdowns across 17 games. The 2025 second-round pick started the year as a backup and took over for J.K. Dobbins (knee) as the starter in Week 11 after the latter was placed on injured reserve. Harvey should continue leading Denver's backfield when the AFC's No. 1 seed resumes play in the divisional round of the playoffs.

Harvey rushed the ball 14 times for 43 yards in Thursday's 20-13 win over the Chiefs. He added five receptions (on six targets) for 33 yards and a touchdown.
EDGE Analysis
Harvey regained a larger split of work out of Denver's backfield, out-touching Jaleel McLaughlin, 19-7. However, the good news mostly ended there, as five of Harvey's 14 carries went for two or fewer yards. He did manage to perform better as a pass catcher, picking up 13 yards on a dump off midway through the third quarter before also catching the game-winning touchdown from one yard away late in the final quarter. Harvey has been inefficient as a runner for most of the season, but he has scored in five straight games and seven of his last nine contests to give him consistent fantasy value.

Harvey rushed the ball seven times for 50 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 34-20 loss to the Jaguars. He added four receptions on five targets for 71 yards.
EDGE Analysis
Head coach Sean Payton promised to get Jaleel McLaughlin more involved in this game, and that split came to fruition. Harvey saw only seven carries as opposed to five for McLaughlin, though Harvey still got the job done as a rusher thanks to a tough 38-yard touchdown run, during which he bounced off several defenders and then out-raced a few more to reach the end zone. The Broncos were forced into a pass-heavy offense while chasing the score, which also helped Harvey rack up a season-best 71 yards through the air. While his workload will be worth monitoring as he continues to work through a rib injury, Harvey showed explosiveness on limited touches that was previously missing from his game.

Harvey (ribs) practiced fully Wednesday, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Harvey sustained a rib injury late in Sunday's 34-26 win over the Packers, a game in which the running back logged 19 carries for 65 yards and a TD, while being on the field for 46 of his team's 68 snaps on offense. Per Parker Gabriel of The Denver Post, coach Sean Payton noted earlier Wednesday that Harvey was "doing good" with his rib injury, while suggesting there were no concerns on that front. With a full practice in the books confirming that notion, Harvey is slated to maintain his lead backfield role this weekend against the 10-4 Jaguars, who have won five straight, and through Week 15 are surrendering a league-low average of 86.3 rushing yards per game.

Broncos coach Sean Payton said Wednesday that he isn't worried about Harvey's rib injury, Parker Gabriel of The Denver Post reports.
EDGE Analysis
Harvey missed the final few snaps of Sunday's 34-26 win over Green Bay after suffering a rib injury late in the fourth quarter. He's practicing Wednesday, with Payton suggesting afterward that the recent signing of RB Cody Schrader is unrelated to Harvey's injury, per Zac Stevens of TheDNVR.com. The Broncos seemingly expect their rookie RB to start again this Sunday against Jacksonville, following back-to-back games with a 68 percent snap share and 17-plus carries. Harvey did lose a fumble this past Sunday, but Payton attributed it to a great defensive play and said there was no issue with the way Harvey was carrying the ball. In other words, Harvey should be busy again this Sunday, so long as he overcomes the rib injury and continues practicing this week.

Harvey (ribs) was spotted at practice Wednesday, Parker Gabriel of The Denver Post reports.
EDGE Analysis
Harvey, who recorded a 68 percent snap share in Sunday's 34-26 win over the Packers en route to carrying 19 times for 65 yards and a touchdown, emerged from the contest with a rib issue. With that in mind, the running back's presence at practice Wednesday is a positive sign ahead of this weekend's game against the Jaguars, with the Broncos' upcoming injury report destined to provide his official participation level in the session.

Harvey didn't return to Sunday's 34-26 win over the Packers after sustaining a rib injury on his final carry with 6:31 remaining in the fourth quarter, Jon Heath of USA Today reports.
EDGE Analysis
Denver had labeled Harvey as questionable to return following the two-minute warning, but the rookie tailback ultimately didn't check back into the game for any of the Broncos' final four offensive plays. Head coach Sean Payton didn't provide many details on Harvey's health following the contest, but the Broncos' decision to claim another running back (Cody Schrader) off waivers from the Texans on Monday could be an indication that Harvey is dealing with more than a minor injury concern. Denver will hold its first Week 16 practice Wednesday, when more information should be available regarding Harvey's status for Sunday's game against Jacksonville.

Harvey rushed the ball 19 times for 65 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 34-26 win over the Packers. He did not catch his only target.
EDGE Analysis
Harvey got off to a tough start, as he fumbled on Denver's opening possession and his third touch of the game. He was benched for the team's next possession, though he was the team's lead back from there and managed a season-high carry total. As has been the case for most of his rookie season, Harvey wasn't efficient, with his longest gain of the night going for only eight yards. However, he did manage to punch in a four-yard rushing score late in the contest, his third straight game reaching the end zone. With J.K. Dobbins (foot) still likely to be sidelined for the foreseeable future, Harvey's role as the lead back looks secure, and he has a minimum of 16 touches in each of his last three games.
