The Denver Broncos have suffered a big setback, as J.K. Dobbins is set to miss the rest of the 2025 NFL season. He will undergo ankle surgery, and the timeline projects he will be out for several months.

Following the announcement of his injury, J.K. Dobbins took to social media to warn the NFL that he will return and should not be counted out.

“For those who will count me out again… Thank you,” Dobbins wrote on X. “For those who are with me on this ride… stick with me! You will love what God has planned next.”
According to reports, Dobbins could return in the playoffs if the Broncos make a long run. After relying heavily on him for several weeks, the player’s hopes of playing again this season now depend on how far his team goes.
