While serving on the USS Georgia, he was a part of four overseas deployments and was named both the "Blue Jacket of the Quarter" and "Junior Sailor of the Year" in 2017 for outstanding performance.

Harvey recorded three total touchdowns in the 44-24 win, which marked the first three-touchdown performance by a Broncos rookie since Clinton Portis in 2002.

"A big thing I would point to is just the way we practice," offensive lineman Alex Palczewski said Monday. "[From the] outside looking in, it looks like all that matters is Sunday. But there's so much that goes into the game plan throughout the week and there's so much time and effort being put in."

"It was everything we've been working for," tackle Mike McGlinchey said. "… It was a huge step forward for us."

"It's a great confidence-builder for us," Harvey said. "Pat had a great game today. Jahdae had an exceptional pick today. We're just trying to put on for this rookie class."
