As the Miami Dolphins bid to reverse their poor start to 2024, they will get their leading rusher back for a crucial showdown.
Dolphins running back De'Von Achane is out of concussion protocol and will play against the Indianapolis Colts on Sunday, he told reporters Friday afternoon via Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.
Achane, 23, sustained a concussion during Miami's 15–10 win over the New England Patriots on Oct. 6. He was limited to just 18 yards on three carries during that game.
The second-year Texas A&M product is the Dolphins' leading rusher, having carried the ball 56 times for 183 yards in 2024. Achane ran for 800 yards and eight touchdowns as a rookie in 2023.

Miami—which has been without the services of quarterback Tua Tagovailoa since Sept. 12, and went nearly a month without running back Raheem Mostert as well—remains just a game and a half back of the Buffalo Bills for first place in the AFC East.
