Broncos running back J.K. Dobbins went to the locker room during Monday’s practice, but head coach Sean Payton isn’t concerned about a long-term absence.
Payton said at his press conference that Dobbins is dealing with a soft tissue injury and that the team is being cautious with him as a result.
“I think he’s going to be fine,” Payton said. “We’re just being smart with it.”
Payton spoke more generally about a run of soft tissue injuries in camp this summer and said the team has to “get a handle” on what they can do better to avoid them. Payton mentioned pre-practice conditioning as one of the areas they’re looking at in hopes of cutting down the absences from practice.
