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.
Dolphins RB Raheem Mostert (chest) got in a limited practice on Wednesday. That gives him a shot to return for this weekend's game vs. the Seahawks. Miami could certainly use him with QB Skylar Thompson under center. We'll track Mostert's progress over the next few days.
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 kept just four WRs on their initial 53-man roster (Tyreek Hill, Jaylen Waddle, Malik Washington, and Braxton Berrios). NFL Network's Cameron Wolfe speculates that it might mean more WR snaps for RB De'Von Achane.
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.
The Dolphins and RB Raheem Mostert agreed to a one-year extension. He's now signed through the 2025 season on a deal that could be worth up to $9 million. It's a well-deserved raise for Mostert after an impressive 2023 campaign that saw him finish third among RBs in PPR points per game. That was fueled largely by his 21 total TDs -- but Mostert also ranked top eight in Rush Yards Over Expected Per Attempt, Elusive Rating, and Pro Football Focus rushing grade. He's a long shot to score as many TDs this season, and RB De'Von Achane could take more work. But this contract extension confirms that Mostert will remain a big part of Miami's offense. He's a solid value at his RB28 ADP.
Dolphins RB Raheem Mostert (knee, ankle) is active for tonight's Wild Card game vs. the Chiefs. He got in three limited practices this week, so we're expecting him to be ready for something close to his usual role.
Dolphins RB Raheem Mostert (knee, ankle) is listed as questionable for Saturday night's Wild Card game vs. the Chiefs. He got in three limited practices this week. HC Mike McDaniel said Thursday that he's "optimistic" Mostert will be able to play in Kansas City. We'll look for further updates on his status and get Miami's inactives around 7 pm ET on Saturday.
Dolphins RB Raheem Mostert (knee, ankle) said Wednesday that he's feeling good but isn't guaranteed to play vs. the Chiefs on Saturday night. "Still a decision that needs to be made," Mostert said. “It is a one-game season. We’ll see how it shakes out. It’s been very difficult. The mental restraints. It’s a struggle. You live to fight another day. I feel like I thrive in the playoffs." Mostert got in a limited practice on Tuesday. We'll see how he progresses over the next few days, but it at least sounds like Mostert will be at less than 100% if he plays on Saturday.
Dolphins RB Raheem Mostert (knee, ankle) got in a limited practice on Tuesday. It's a good sign after he missed five of six practices over the previous two weeks. Mostert is expected back for Saturday night's Wild Card game vs. the Chiefs, but it's still unclear how big a workload he'll be ready to handle.
