NFL News: Former Lamar Jackson key weapon could be joining Bo Nix’s Broncos

The Denver Broncos are fully focused on making a strong run in the upcoming NFL season, continuing to make moves to build a competitive roster worthy of the challenge. A former teammate of Lamar Jackson from the Baltimore Ravens could be the next addition to Bo Nix’s team, aiming to boost Sean Payton’s offense.

The latest report reveals that former Chargers running back J.K. Dobbins is planning a trip to Denver in the coming days to visit the Broncos’ facilities. The experienced back has serious intentions of joining Nix’s team for the upcoming season.

The news was confirmed by NFL insider Tom Pelissero, who shared further details about the meeting between the former Herbert teammate and Sean Payton’s team through his official account on X (formerly Twitter).

“Former #Chargers starting RB J.K. Dobbins is headed to Denver tonight to have dinner with coaches and visit the #Broncos facility Thursday, per source,” the insider reported via @TomPelissero.

He also added: “The dynamic Dobbins, who had 1,084 yards from scrimmage and 9 TDs in 2024, now could land with an AFC West contender.”

What can be expected from the Broncos this upcoming season?

The Denver Broncos enter the upcoming season with Bo Nix once again leading the offense as their starting quarterback. With Sean Payton at the helm, the team aims to find the perfect balance between a dynamic offense and a solid defense. Payton’s experience will be key in orchestrating a team capable of competing at the highest level.

A major boost to the Broncos’ defense comes with the addition of first-round pick Jahdae Barron from the Texas Longhorns. His arrival is expected to strengthen the defensive unit, which is crucial in a division as tough as the AFC West. Denver knows that to dethrone the Kansas City Chiefs, they must improve on both sides of the ball.

With these pieces in place, the Broncos have set their sights on becoming serious contenders in their division and beyond. The big question remains: can they maintain consistency throughout the season and make a deep playoff run that ends with a Super Bowl appearance? Only time will tell if Denver can rise to the challenge.
