Dolphins RB De'Von Achane certainly liked seeing Tua Tagovailoa back in the lineup for Sunday's game against Arizona. The speed back rushed 10 times for 97 yards, adding 50 yards on 6 receptions.
Dolphins RB Raheem Mostert returned from a chest injury to post 19 carries for 80 yards against New England. In a close victory, Miami ran 75 plays and stuck to a run-heavy game plan. De'Von Achane also left in the 1st quarter with a concussion.
Dolphins RB Raheem Mostert (chest) is inactive for tonight's game vs. the Titans. He's been limited in practice the past two weeks but evidently isn't ready for game action yet. Miami figures to continue using De'Von Achane in a feature role, with RBs Jaylen Wright and Jeff Wilson picking up scraps.
Dolphins RB Raheem Mostert (chest) is not expected to play vs. the Titans tonight, according to NFL Network's Tom Pelissero. That'll again leave RB De'Von Achane in a workhorse role. He's totaled 33 carries and 12 targets with Mostert out the last two games. RBs Jaylen Wright and Jeff Wilson will be active behind Achane but are only in play as fliers in one or two-game DFS contests.
Dolphins RB Raheem Mostert (chest) is inactive for today’s game vs. the Seahawks. He put in three limited practices this week, so he should have a good chance of making it back for Week 4. RB De’Von Achane racked up 22 carries and seven targets with Mostert out last week and should be busy again today. RBs Jaylen Wright and Jeff Wilson are active behind Achane but aren’t fantasy options.
Dolphins RB Raheem Mostert (chest) is listed as doubtful for Sunday’s game vs. the Seahawks. He put in three limited practices this week but evidently isn’t ready for game action. His absence should again leave workhorse duties to RB De’Von Achane, who racked up 22 carries and seven targets last week. RBs Jaylen Wright and Jeff Wilson will be active behind Achane but aren’t fantasy factors.
Dolphins HC Mike McDaniel said Friday that he's "pessimistic" RB Raheem Mostert (chest) will play vs. the Seahawks this weekend. Mostert has put in two limited practices so far this week and hasn't been ruled out yet. But fantasy owners should start preparing to be without him again in Week 3. We'll see how he's listed on the final injury report later today.
After being limited in practice all week with a Questionable tag, Dolphins RB De'Von Achane is active and starting tonight's game. With RB Raheem Mostert out for the game, RBs Jeffery Wilson and Jaylen Wright (both are also active) will also be included, but Achane should lead the way with no restrictions.
There's "optimism" about Dolphins RB De'Von Achane's availability for tonight's game against the Bills, according to NFL Network. Achane is listed as questionable after only getting in a limited practice on Wednesday. But Miami media noted that Achane didn't seem to be hobbled in the open portion of that Wednesday practice.
Dolphins HC Mike McDaniel announced Wednesday that RB Raheem Mostert will miss Thursday night's game against the Bills because of a chest injury. That leaves the backfield to De'Von Achane (if he plays) and Jeff Wilson Jr. -- and likely means Miami will activate rookie RB Jaylen Wright.
Dolphins RB De'Von Achane suffered an ankle injury against the Jaguars in Week 1 and appears headed to be game-time decision on Thursday Night Football against the Bills. With RB Raheem Mostert already out, RBs Jeffrey Wilson Jr. and Jaylen Wright will both have increased touches in Week 2.
Dolphins RBs De'Von Achane (ankle) and Raheem Mostert (chest) did not practice on Tuesday. We noticed both guys temporarily exit the Week 1 win over Jacksonville, but they both returned and finished out the game.
Dolphins RB Jaylen Wright is a healthy scratch for today's opener vs. the Jaguars. It's a tad surprising, but we never expected Wright to have a significant Week 1 role behind RBs De'Von Achane and Raheem Mostert. Wright is still a strong stash on fantasy benches. Remember that Achane was a healthy scratch in last year's opener.
The Dolphins added Tennessee RB Jaylen Wright in Round 4. Wright is one of the most explosive RBs in this year’s class. He averaged 6.2 yards per carry over his three college seasons, including a huge 7.4 yards per carry in 2023. 14.0% of Wright’s runs last year went for 15+ yards – the second-highest rate among this year’s top-25 RB prospects. So it wasn’t a big surprise when he blazed a 4.38-second 40 time at 5’11 and 210 pounds. Wright isn’t just a pure speed back, though. He runs with plenty of power, averaging 4.35 yards after contact per attempt last year – fifth among 157 qualifying RBs. Wright played in a spread offense at Tennessee that afforded him some huge running lanes. He’ll have a transition to make to his NFL scheme. But his combination of size, explosiveness, and long speed can’t be taught. Wright also proved capable in the passing game this past year, catching 22 balls for 141 yards. We see a lot of Lamar Miller in his game. Wright adds more speed to an explosive Dolphins offense, although he’ll be challenged to find playing time behind De’Von Achane and Raheem Mostert. Mostert recently inked an extension that keeps him in Miami through the 2025 season.
Tennessee RB Jaylen Wright confirmed faith in his long speed by running a 4.38-second 40 time at the Scouting Combine on Saturday. That gives him a speed score well above average for the position and ranked second among RBs at this year's Combine. Wright delivered limited college production, including just 8 receptions before last season (when he had 22). Wright averaged only 5.7 yards per catch for his college career but averaged 6.2 per rush. That increased each year, topping out at 7.4 per carry in 2023. Wright's draft capital will be interesting. Be careful not to overrate him in early best ball drafting.
