The Broncos picked up from where it left off from last season and started the new campaign off strong with a 20-12 victory over the Titans in Week 1. Rookie running back R.J. Harvey delivered an impressive showing in Week 1 and lived up to some of his preseason hype as a potential fantasy sleeper.
Below, we’ll go over Harvey’s outlook in fantasy football for Week 2.
Fantasy Football analysis: Broncos RB R.J. Harvey
Harvey was explosive in his NFL debut last Sunday, taking six carries for 70 yards in the team’s Week 1 victory over the Titans. He was more explosive than starting running back J.K. Dobbins, who took 16 carries for 63 yards in the opener. The rookie from UCF was also on the field for roughly 30% of the Broncos’ offensive snaps in the victory and based on his Week 1 performance, that number is bound to go up as the seasons rolls forward.
Start or sit in Week 2 standard leagues?
Start. Harvey was explosive in Week 1 and I can easily see him cutting into Dobbins’ carries as the new campaign unfurls. He finished Week 1 as a top-30 fantasy tailback and I think that he will once again be an effective low RB2/Flex option this week. Give him the nod.
