De’Von Achane reportedly trending in right direction to play vs. Bills

Miami Dolphins running back De’Von Achane suffered an ankle sprain in the team’s Week 1 win, but there’s growing “optimism” that he’ll be available Thursday night for an important matchup against the Buffalo Bills, according to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport.

Rapoport says Achane will “workout pregame tonight to determine his availability,” but said that the team is feeling good about the progress the running back has made.

The Dolphins didn’t practice Monday and only held a walkthrough Tuesday, but the team listed Achane as a non-participant in their estimated injury reports. He returned Wednesday on a limited basis and was ruled questionable for Week 2.

While he didn’t practice in full Wednesday, NFL Network’s Cameron Wolfe said Achane looked good in his limited work.

Keeping Achane in the lineup would be a significant boost for the Dolphins offense, as it will be without running back Raheem Mostert, who suffered a chest injury in Week 1.

In his 2024 debut, Achane managed only 24 rushing yards on 10 attempts, but was the Dolphins’ third leading receiver with seven receptions for 76 yards. He also scored Miami’s first touchdown of the season on a one-yard rush.
