De'Von Achane - NFL News, Rumors, & Updates

Sitting out season finale Achane (shoulder) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Patriots.

Impact As was expected after the Dolphins listed him as doubtful on their final injury report of the season, Achane will ultimately sit out Sunday while he nurses what's believed to be a minor shoulder injury. With Achane in street clothes, Miami will have Jaylen Wright, Ollie Gordon, Donovan Edwards and Jeff Wilson as its available running backs for Week 18. Achane will conclude his third NFL season with a career-high 1,350 rushing yards (5.7 per carry) to go with 67 catches for 488 yards and 12 total touchdowns over 16 games.

Patriots face Dolphins as legal cases for Diggs, Barmore cast cloud over pursuit of AFC's top seed

Keeping focus on the field has been more difficult for New England Patriots, who have much to play for in their regular-season finale against the Miami Dolphins

Officially listed as doubtful Achane (shoulder) is officially listed as doubtful for Sunday's season finale against the Patriots, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

Impact Achane has missed three consecutive practices due to a shoulder injury and will be considered a game-time decision for Week 18, Omar Kelly of the Miami Herald reports. With the Dolphins already well eliminated from playoff contention, the team may opt to err on the side of caution with the health of Achane, arguably the club's top playmaker on offense. Achane hasn't yet missed a game in 2025, and across 16 regular-season appearances the undersized ballcarrier leads Miami's offense with 1,838 scrimmage yards (fifth most in the NFL). If Achane is ruled out for Sunday's game, Jaylen Wright will likely start out of the backfield while Ollie Gordon and new signee Donovan Edwards contribute in depth roles. Achane's status will be made official no later than 90 minutes prior to Sunday's 4:25 p.m. ET kickoff.

To be game-time decision Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel said Achane (shoulder) will not practice Friday and will be considered a game-time decision for Sunday's season finale against the Patriots, Omar...

Impact Achane is seemingly trending toward receiving an official 'questionable' tag with the release of Friday's injury report, though McDaniel noted that Miami typically holds players who unable to close the practice week with any on-field reps out of game action, per Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald. Meanwhile, the Dolphins are placing Darren Waller (groin) on IR on Friday, while Jaylen Waddle (ribs) will practice in a limited capacity and be listed as questionable. With Miami already well out of playoff contention, the team could simply opt to take a cautious approach and preserve Achane's health. In that case, Jaylen Wright would stand to lead the team's backfield Week 18, while rookie Ollie Gordon would step into the No. 2 role.

Misses another practice Achane (shoulder) did not practice Thursday, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

Impact Achane is missing a second consecutive practice due to a shoulder injury, giving him just one more chance to handle on-field reps ahead of Sunday's regular-season finale against the Patriots. If the star playmaker is unable to suit up Week 18, Jaylen Wright will figure to lead Miami's backfield on the road against New England, while Ollie Gordon will also stand to inherit an increased role on offense.

DNP due to shoulder injury Achane missed Wednesday's practice with a shoulder injury, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

Impact There was no clear sign of trouble during Sunday's 20-18 win over Tampa Bay, with Achane taking carries deep into the fourth quarter and ultimately finishing with 21 touches on a 74 percent snap share. He's up to 1,838 yards from scrimmage on the season, having yet to miss a game. Jaylen Wright has been Miami's No. 2 RB of late, ahead of Ollie Gordon.

Over 100 scrimmage yards in win Achane rushed 18 times for 83 yards and brought in all three targets for 29 yards in the Dolphins' 20-17 win over the Buccaneers on Sunday.

Impact Achane set the pace for the Dolphins' ground attack as usual and collected some solid gains against a stout Buccaneers run defense. The versatile back also made his customary contributions in the passing game, and Achane will look to put a stamp on what is already a career-best season in a Week 18 road matchup against the Patriots.

De'Von Achane named to AFC Pro Bowl Games roster Miami Dolphins running back De’Von Achane has been named to the AFC roster for the 2026 Pro Bowl Games, the NFL announced Tuesday.

DECEMBER 23, 2025 • MIAMIDOLPHINS.COM

Long rushing TD in loss Achane rushed 15 times for 81 yards and a touchdown and brought in all three targets for nine yards in the Dolphins' 45-21 loss to the Bengals on Sunday.

Impact The highlight of Achane's afternoon came on his 48-yard scoring scamper late in the first quarter, which served as his third-longest run of the season. Achane's touchdown was his eighth on the ground of the campaign, with five of those coming within the last six contests. Achane also now has multiple catches in consecutive contests heading into a Week 17 home matchup against the Buccaneers next Sunday.

DECEMBER 21, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Efficient in two-way role Monday Achane rushed 12 times for 60 yards and brought in all six targets for 67 yards in the Dolphins' 28-15 loss to the Steelers on Monday night.

Impact Achane led the Dolphins in both rushing and receiving yards on the night, with his pass-catching work taking center stage in the second half due to Miami's deficit. Achane's rushing workload still bumped up by five carries over Week 14 against the Jets, and his receiving yardage total was his second highest of the season behind only his 92-yard effort in Week 2 against the Patriots. Achane should remain virtually game-script-proof in a Week 16 home matchup against the Bengals on Sunday.

4 Takeaways From the Steelers' Win Over the Dolphins

Clear of injury designation for MNF Achane (ribs) does not have an injury designation for Monday's Week 15 game against Pittsburgh, C. Isaiah Smalls II of the Miami Herald reports.

Impact Miami coach Mike McDaniel said earlier Saturday that he expected Achane to play Monday, and the star running back's lack of an injury designation on the team's final practice report makes that expectation a reality. In fact, Achane was able to practice in full Saturday after being limited the previous two days, so he may not have any restrictions (aside from possibly wearing some extra padding to protect his ribs). Achane could be primed for a big game against a Steelers defense that has given up the ninth-most rushing yards to running backs through 13 games this season.

Will De'Von Achane play in Week 15? Latest injury update on Dolphins RB | Sporting News The electric Dolphins running back is good to go against the Steelers.

DECEMBER 13, 2025 • SPORTINGNEWS.COM

Expected to play Monday Head coach Mike McDaniel told reporters Saturday that he expects Achane (ribs) to play against the Steelers on Monday, C. Isaiah Smalls II of the Miami Herald reports.

Impact Achane was a limited practice participant Thursday and Friday while donning a red non-contact jersey in both sessions. Per Hal Habib of The Palm Beach Post, Achane is testing out different forms of equipment to protect his ribs, and while Saturday's injury report has yet to come out, the expectation is that the third-year running back suits up for Monday night's game. If Achane is unable to play or operates on a snap count, then Jaylen Wright and Ollie Gordon would be in line for expanded roles out of the backfield.

Another limited practice Achane (ribs) was a limited participant in Friday's practice, Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Achane wore a red non-contact jersey at practice Friday, Joe Schad of The Palm Beach Post reports, but he appeared to be running at full speed without signs of discomfort. Per Hal Habib of The Palm Beach Post, the standout running back is testing forms of protective equipment he could use to guard his ribs during Monday's road matchup against the Steelers, while Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald reports that the Dolphins do expect Achane to be available versus Pittsburgh. That said, after the impressive showing Jaylen Wright logged Week 14, Miami could opt to assign Achane less touches than his workhorse role usually entails, even if he's active Week 15. He'll have one final chance to handle contact reps at Saturday's practice.

DECEMBER 12, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Slated to be limited Thursday Achane (ribs) will be limited at Thursday's practice, Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Per Louis-Jacques, Achane will wear a red (non-contact) jersey during Thursday's session, with coach Mike McDaniel noting that "it'll be a gradual increase in activity and physicality" for the running back as the week progresses, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports. Achane has two more chances to upgrade to full participation before Miami assigns Week 15 game statuses Saturday. If he ends up limited or out Monday night against the Steelers, however, Jaylen Wright would be next in line for added backfield touches, with Ollie Gordon also mixing in.

DECEMBER 11, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Could rest this week Achane (ribs) could rest this week, according to C. Isaiah Smalls II of the Miami Herald.

Impact Achane underwent an MRI after sustaining a rib injury in Sunday's victory over the Jets, and although it was determined he is not dealing with a serious setback, head coach Mike McDaniel revealed he "needs treatment" and could get some rest at practice this week. Miami will face Pittsburgh on Monday night in Week 15, so while that will afford Achane more rest, it will also likely delay the next official update on the running back's status until Thursday.

DECEMBER 8, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Could have returned Sunday, per coach Coach Mike McDaniel noted after Sunday's 34-10 win over the Jets that Achane (rib) was available to return to return to the contest in an emergency, David Furones of the South Flor...

Impact McDaniel acknowledged that Achane was hurting after exiting the game with a rib issue, but it looks like the running back has a chance to avoid missing further game action, given that he did not suffer a fracture, per Cameron Wolfe of NFL Network. That said, we'd expect Achane's name to appear on Miami's injury report ahead of the team's Nov. 15 game against the Steelers. With Achane logging just seven carries Sunday, Jaylen Wright saw added work, carrying 24 times for 107 yards and a TD, while Ollie Gordon mixed in with five carries for 17 yards and a TD.

Sustains rib injury Sunday Achane exited Sunday's game against the Jets with a rib injury.

Impact Prior to leaving Sunday's contest, Achane carried seven times for 92 yards and a TD and caught his only target for 13 yards. In his absence, Jaylen Wright and Ollie Gordon are available to handle Miami's backfield duties.
