The Miami Dolphins have now won three straight games, as Achane takes over and the defense comes up with a huge stop.
De’Von Achane didn’t catch a pass against the Saints; it was the first time that has happened all season, but it didn’t matter. Achane recorded 134 yards and a touchdown on 22 carries, leading the Dolphins to a win over the Saints, and don’t look now, but Miami is on a three-game win streak.
Achane has been electric this season, averaging over 21 points per game and has continued to see a rise in his rushing attempts. This is his third straight game with over 100 rushing yards, and in those games, he has finished no lower than running back six.

Miami Dolphins running back De'Von Achane carried the ball ...
De’Von Achane was once again the centerpiece of the Miami Dolphins offense against the Washington Commanders.
The Miami Dolphins leaned on running back De’Von Achane in their 16-13 win against the Washington Commanders. Achane put up 120 yards on the ground and another 45 yards through the air.
Tua Tagovailoa threw for just 171 yards in this defensive struggle, Jaylen Waddle was the only Dolphins wide receiver to eclipse 50 yards. Rookie Ollie Gordon was also effective today, rushing for 45 yards and touchdown.
Achane is one of the best running backs in the league but he was stuffed multiple times inside the five yard line today, opening the door for Gordon to vulture a touchdown and possibly become more involved as the goal line back going forward.

Miami Dolphins running back De’Von Achane totals over 100 scrimmage yards in loss.
De’Von Achane rushed for sixty-seven yards on the ground and added thirty-nine yards on six receptions, putting him over 100 yards from scrimmage tonight against the Baltimore Ravens. Achane didn’t find the endzone tonight, just the third time this season he leaves a game without a touchdown.
Achane has been a bright spot for what has been a miserable season for the Miami Dolphins, he’s had either a touchdown or 90+ scrimmage yards in every game this year. Ollie Gordon was the only other running back to have a carry tonight.
Despite how difficult the season has been for the Dolphins and the questions surrounding their head coach Achane remains a must start fantasy running back regardless of matchup.

Dolphins star wideout Tyreek Hill to undergo season ending surgery for a torn ACL and multiple ligaments.
Miami Dolphins superstar wide receiver Tyreek Hill is set to miss the rest of the 2025 season with a torn ACL and several other torn ligaments in his knee. The Dolphins will be without their top target which will require other talent to step up.
The logical expectation is that receiver Jaylen Waddle will take over the reins as the top target in the offense along with De’Von Achane who is a receiving threat out of the backfield. Of note, Darren Waller had a productive night versus the Jets with a 3-28-2 receiving line. Malik Washington figures to gain snap share from the slot as well.
Waddle has scored 13.2 fantasy points per game which ranks 24th. He is in line to become a higher end WR2 in fantasy football. Achane’s 25% target share is No.2 and will most assuredly go up which will help him return top-5 RB value the rest of the season.

The Miami Dolphins put up more than 8 points this week but still got beat by division rival New England Patriots.
The New England Patriots earned their first win of the season Sunday, edging out the Miami Dolphins 33-27 in a back-and-forth battle at Hard Rock Stadium.
Sophomore quarterback Drake Maye delivered a sharp performance, completing 19 of 23 passes for 230 yards and two touchdowns, he also added 31 yards on the ground and adding a score too. Rhamondre Stevenson had the most on the ground for the Patriots with 54 yards, while averaging 4.9 yards per carry. Stevenson was also involved in the receiving game having 5 catches for 88 yards. It was a big day for Stevenson, all while rookie running back Treveyon Henderson only played on 32% of snaps.
New England’s special teams provided a game-changing moment when Antonio Gibson returned a kickoff 90-yards for a touchdown. This was one play after Dolphins’ Malik Washington returned a 74-yard punt return for a touchdown. Both team’s special teams provided back-to-back blows, but ultimately Patriots edge out Dolphins.
For the Dolphins they did provide more offense than they did in Week 1 woes. Quarterback Tua Tagovailoa threw for over 300 yards and two scores. The Dolphins running game once again could get going on the ground, De’Von Achane rushed 11 times for just 30 yards, however, Achane provided a spark in the receiving game having 8 grabs for 92 yards and touchdown. Also, in the receiving game we got vintage Tyreek Hill going for 109 yards on 6 catches. Jaylen Waddel was another player who contributed to the receiving game, hauling in 5 catches for 68 yards and score.
The Patriots improve to 1-1 with the victory, while the Dolphins drop to 0-2, and still searching for their first win of the season.

Miami Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel says that Tyreek Hill is on track to play Week 1.
It has been a rocky offseason for Miami Dolphins star wide receiver Tyreek Hill. After blasting the team publicly and wanting out of Miami at the end of the 2024 season, he has had to do a lot to make amends with his teammates. Recently, Hill wasn’t voted to be team captain for the first time in his 3-year tenure with the team.
Hill hasn’t practiced the last few weeks due to an oblique and calf injury. Many have suspected that the injury may be a band aid to a deeper problem between Hill and the organization. With McDaniel saying Hill is lining up to play Week 1, those concerns can be quelled momentarily.
The focus now shifts to his Week 1 matchup against the Indianapolis Colts. Fantasy gamers will be watching closely as his ADP has been suppressed in all formats. Any return to prime form will reap massive rewards for those who roster him. Alternately, any implosion between Hill and the team will have a direct impact on his play. The door isn’t entirely shut on Hill playing for a different team during the 2025 season.
