Dolphins RB De'Von Achane (knee) is officially active for today’s game vs. the Raiders. The rookie isn’t the safest play in his first action since Week 5, but his upside is huge. Achane finished as a top-5 PPR RB in each of his last three games. And Vegas ranks 23rd in adjusted fantasy points allowed to RBs. RB Jeff Wilson is a healthy scratch today, leaving Salvon Ahmed as the No. 3 RB behind Achane and Raheem Mostert.
The Dolphins have activated RB De'Von Achane (knee) from IR, making him available to play Sunday against the Raiders. We've been expecting Achane to be available this week, his first week of eligibility. You can find the rookie in RB1 territory of our Week 11 rankings. His return adds a challenge for RB Raheem Mostert's workload, but he still carries plenty of upside as well and belongs in your fantasy lineup in most cases.
The Dolphins are opening the 21-day practice window for rookie RB De'Von Achane to return from IR. Achane missed the past four games with a knee sprain, but Adam Beasley of the Miami Herald says it "sounds like there's an excellent chance" the rookie plays this week. HC Mike McDaniel reportedly even indicated that Achane could have played through the issue with a brace on the affected knee. But the team decided that didn't fit the player's long-term interests. Achane, of course, has scored fantasy points at a ridiculous rate when on the field so far this year, leading all RBs in PPR points per game on just 11.75 touches per contest. He's likely bound for some regression on that, but should also remain a weekly fantasy starter. His combo of game-breaking speed and an offense designed to exploit that skill makes Achane a high-upside play across matchups. His return challenges RB Raheem Mostert's role a bit but hasn't altered Mostert's touch count to date. Mostert has averaged 13.4 touches across five full games without Achane; 14.0 per game in the three contests in which Achane played a significant role. (The rookie touched the ball only twice in his first game.) RBs Jeff Wilson Jr. and Salvon Ahmed, on the other hand, can be dropped in most redraft formats.
Dolphins RB Raheem Mostert tallied 85 rushing yards and 1 score in Week 9. His 13-yard cutback run in the third quarter put his season-long scoring tally at 13. Miami gave Mostert 12 carries in the narrow loss, good for a healthy 70.5% carry share. The Fins enters a Week 10 bye before facing Vegas the following week. Barring a setback, De’Von Achane should return for that one. Still, Mostert profiles as a top-15 RB going forward.
Dolphins RB Raheem Mostert (ankle) is not listed on the final Week 9 injury report. He got in just limited practices on Thursday and Friday but is in no danger of missing Sunday morning’s game vs. the Chiefs in Germany.
Dolphins RB Raheem Mostert (ankle) returned to a limited practice on Thursday. He confirmed afterward that he fully expects to play vs. the Chiefs on Sunday morning. We'll see how Mostert is listed on the final injury report tomorrow, but he can stay penciled into Week 9 fantasy lineups.
Dolphins RB Raheem Mostert (ankle) did not practice on Wednesday. He played through this issue last week and should be ready for Sunday morning's game vs. the Chiefs in Germany. But it's a reminder that Mostert isn't at 100% right now.
Dolphins RB Raheem Mostert cashed in a goal line rushing score against New England. That proved critical, as he gained only 46 yards on 13 carries. Despite 45 passes from Tua Tagovailoa, the veteran RB wasn't targeted. Also note: Jeff Wilson mixed in for 5 attempts (25% of the team RB total), while Salvon Ahmed saw 2 (10%). De’Von Achane won’t return until Week 11 at the earliest, so keep Mostert in lineups as a no-doubt fantasy starter. Next up is a matchup with Kansas City.
Dolphins RB Raheem Mostert (ankle) is active for today’s game vs. the Patriots. He got in just limited practices on Thursday and Friday, but there’s been nothing to suggest that he’ll be limited today.
Dolphins RB Raheem Mostert (ankle) is expected to play in today's game vs. the Patriots, per NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Mostert only got in limited practices on Thursday and Friday, but we never sensed any concern about his availability for this one. He should be ready for his usual role.
Dolphins RB Raheem Mostert (ankle) is listed as questionable for this weekend’s game vs. the Patriots. He got in just limited practices on Thursday and Friday but said Friday that he’ll play against New England. We’ll get Miami’s inactives around 11:30 am ET on Sunday.
Dolphins RB Raheem Mostert (ankle) returned to a limited practice on Thursday. He should be fine for this weekend's game vs. the Patriots, but we'll get another update on Mostert tomorrow.
Dolphins RB Raheem Mostert (ankle) did not practice on Wednesday. We didn't notice him get banged up in Sunday night's loss to the Eagles, and there's been no word on him dealing with a significant injury. It's worth noting that Mostert was held out on the Wednesday of Week 2 before practicing on Thursday and Friday and playing on Sunday. We'll see if he gets back on the field tomorrow.
Dolphins RB Raheem Mostert struggled on Sunday night, tallying 45 rushing yards on 9 carries. The veteran added 1 catch on 3 targets for 6 receiving yards in Week 7, but those efforts only bumped his PPR score up to a mediocre 6.1 points. Such is the risk when going up against an Eagles defense that ranked as the fourth-toughest matchup in adjusted fantasy points allowed to RBs in 2023 entering this weekend. We expect Mostert to perform better in next week’s matchup against the Patriots.
Dolphins RB Jeff Wilson (ribs, finger) put in a full week of practice and isn’t listed on the final Week 7 injury report. He’s seemingly in line to make his 2023 debut vs. the Eagles on Sunday night, although Wilson still needs to be activated from IR. Considering how well RB Raheem Mostert has played, we’d be surprised if Wilson played a big role out of the gate. He’s not a strong Week 7 fantasy play but is certainly worth stashing on benches.
Dolphins RB Jeff Wilson (ribs, finger) put in a full practice on Wednesday. That should have him on track to make his 2023 debut vs. the Eagles on Sunday night. It's tough to imagine Wilson stealing a ton of work out of the gate from RB Raheem Mostert, who's been awesome so far this season. But we'll keep a close eye on Wilson's role. He's worth stashing in fantasy leagues of 12+ teams.
Dolphins RB Raheem Mostert busted off 115 yards and 2 scores in a Week 6 win over Carolina. Miami fell behind 14-0 in the 1st quarter, but Mostert responded with two scores over the next two quarters – both inside the five yard-line. Remember that Miami entered this one without RBs Jeff Wilson and De’Von Achane. Carolina also profiled as a bottom-barrel run D, so this result was far from a surprise for Mostert. He’ll face a much stiffer test next Sunday night at Philly.
Dolphins RB Jeff Wilson (ribs, finger) has been downgraded to out for Sunday's game vs. the Panthers. He put in three limited practices this week, so we'll see if he's ready to make his 2023 debut next weekend vs. the Eagles. RB Raheem Mostert should handle the majority of Miami's backfield work tomorrow.
Dolphins RB Jeff Wilson (ribs, finger) is listed as doubtful for Sunday's game vs. the Panthers. He put in three limited practices this week, so he shouldn't be far from making his 2023 debut. Wilson's absence this weekend will leave RBs Salvon Ahmed and Chris Brooks behind Raheem Mostert. Mostert should control the backfield work in a dream matchup against Carolina's 29th-ranked RB defense.
Dolphins HC Mike McDaniel said Monday they hadn't decided yet whether to open the 21-day practice window this week for RB Jeff Wilson Jr., according to Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald. A separate report had agent Drew Rosenhaus saying Wilson would be activated from IR (hand, ribs) this week. We'll see what Miami decides.
