De'Von Achane Fantasy Football News | Shark Bites

Shark Bites are the latest fantasy football news & NFL updates. Draft Sharks has been in business since 1999. And when we started, redraft was the dominant form of fantasy football. Check out what we've learned about this most basic form of fantasy football along the way.

Dolphins RB Raheem Mostert (hip) is inactive for today’s game vs. the Jets. His absence could mean a few extra touches for RB De’Von Achane, particularly in the red zone. RBs Jaylen Wright and Jeff Wilson are also active for Miami.

Dolphins RB Raheem Mostert (hip) is not expected to play vs. the Jets today, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Mostert has averaged just 2.5 carries and 1.8 targets over the last four games, so there isn't a big fantasy impact here. RB De'Von Achane could pick up a few extra touches, particularly in the red zone. Jaylen Wright and Jeff Wilson will serve as the No. 2 and 3 RBs.

Dolphins RB Raheem Mostert (hip) was limited in practice all week and is listed as questionable for Sunday's game vs. the Jets. He's averaged just 2.5 carries and 1.8 targets over the last four games, so his absence would be just a slight boost to RB De'Von Achane.

Dolphins RB De’Von Achane notched 17 carries for 73 yards and 1 score in Sunday's win over Vegas. He added 32 receiving yards on an 11% target share.

Dolphins RB Raheem Mostert suffered a hip injury in the first quarter of Sunday's game vs. the Raiders and is officially questionable to return. His absence leaves Miami's backfield to De'Von Achane and Jaylen Wright. We'll update Mostert's status when we know more.

Update: Mostert returned in the second quarter.

Dolphins RB Raheem Mostert didn’t receive a carry in Monday’s upset win over the Rams. He played just 15% of the snaps and ran a route on 7 of his 8 total snaps. Previously, Mostert saw 6+ carries in each game.

Dolphins WR Tyreek Hill (wrist) is listed as questionable for Monday night's game vs. the Rams. He was added to the injury report on Friday and missed the final two practices of the week.

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 QB Tua Tagovailoa has cleared concussion protocol and will start this weekend's game vs. the Cardinals, HC Mike McDaniel said Friday. Miami has totaled just 40 points without Tagovailoa over the last four games. They averaged 27.9 points per game with Tua last year and are implied for 25 points against Arizona this week. Dolphins players are back to their early-season spots in our Week 8 Rankings.

Dolphins QB Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) is expected to practice next week, according to The Athletic's Dianna Russini. "As long as there are no setbacks, the hope is for Tagovailoa to play in the Week 8 game against the Arizona Cardinals," Russini adds. Tagovailoa has not had any lingering issues from his latest concussion, and Russini intimates that he's already cleared protocol. We'll track Tagovailoa's practice participation next week, but his return would obviously be excellent news for RB De'Von Achane, WR Tyreek Hill, and WR Jaylen Waddle. We'd take a crack at trading for those guys right now.

Dolphins RB De'Von Achane (concussion) put in a full week of practice and is not listed on the final injury report for Sunday’s game vs. the Colts. Achane will be available for a full workload. He’s struggled to 2.6 yards per carry in three games without QB Tua Tagovailoa, but this is a get-right spot against an Indianapolis defense sitting 26th in adjusted fantasy points allowed to RBs.

Dolphins RB De'Von Achane (concussion) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice. Barring a setback, he'll be cleared to play vs. the Colts this weekend. Achane has struggled to 2.6 yards per carry in three games without QB Tua Tagovailoa, but this is a get-right spot against a Colts defense sitting 26th in adjusted fantasy points allowed to RBs.

Dolphins RB De'Von Achane left in the first quarter of Sunday's game vs. the Patriots for a concussion check. He's officially questionable to return. Stay tuned for an update.

Update: Achane has been ruled out. It's his first documented concussion. Raheem Mostert and Jaylen Wright will handle backfield duties the rest of the way.

There's a "real possibility" that Dolphins QB Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) is back for the Week 8 game against the Cardinals, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. That's when he's first eligible to come off IR after his latest concussion. Tagovailoa is reportedly symptom-free and has no plans to retire. RB De'Von Achane, WR Tyreek Hill, and WR Jaylen Waddle need Tua back to save their seasons. There's still no guarantee that Tagovailoa makes it back (or stays on the field if he does), but it's not a bad idea to make buy-low offers for Miami's skill guys right now.

Dolphins HC Mike McDaniel said Tuesday that QB Tyler Huntley will start this weekend's game vs. the Patriots. The Fins managed just 12 points with Huntley at the controls of Monday night's loss to the Titans. Huntley finished 14-of-22 (64%) for 96 yards (4.4 YPA), 0 TDs, and 0 INTs -- although Dolphins receivers dropped two passes. Huntley also ran for 40 yards and Miami's only TD.

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.
