Availability
Jonah Coleman did not see a single opportunity in Monday night's 31-10 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs.
Fantasy Impact
There has been a lot of hype about the potential of the rookie over the course of the offseason, but he didn't see even a single opportunity in the three snaps he played in his NFL debut on Monday night. He will likely see involvement in more favorable matchups moving forward, but this start is very discouraging and indicates that he is squarely behind both J.K. Dobbins and RJ Harvey in the pecking order at this point.
The belief in Broncos camp is Jonah Coleman could earn an immediate role.
Fantasy Impact
Coleman would most likely hold a short-yardage and/or goal line role if he is to play right away. This could end up being a three-man committee with J.K. Dobbins and RJ Harvey.
The Broncos signed RB Jonah Coleman to a four-year contract.
Fantasy Impact
Coleman is likely to open the season as the RB3 in the Broncos backfield behind RJ Harvey and JK Dobbins, though he could hold an immediate short-yardage role. He'll remain a rookie to monitor heading into OTAs and training camp.
The Athletic’s Nick Kosmider believes there will be an “immediate role” for Jonah Coleman as the Broncos’ short-yardage running back.
Fantasy Impact
Coleman was a fourth-round pick of Denver this past weekend. He was strong on short-yardage downs during his collegiate career at Washington and Arizona. He'll be a stash in redraft next season and an intriguing long-term selection for those in dynasty leagues.
The Denver Broncos have selected Washington RB Jonah Coleman with the No. 108 pick in the 2026 NFL Draft.
