De'Von Achane

NFL Network’s Cameron Wolfe reports Dolphins assistant head coach and running backs coach Eric Studesville said the team is “preparing” to give De’Von Achane “more work” this season.

Per Wolfe, Achane asked Studesville for more touches in 2025 after racking up a career-high 281 touches in 2024. When discussing whether Achane (5'9/188) can handle the workload required of the “clear No. 1 player in that backfield,” Studesville reportedly said, “yes,” before adding, “He can handle whatever we give him.” Achane, 23, has reportedly set his sights on clearing 1,000 rushing yards and 500 receiving yards in a single season. He accomplished the latter feat with 592 receiving yards last season, but topped out at 907 yards on the ground. All signs point to Achane repeating as a fantasy football RB1 in 2025.
