Dolphins Beat: Kenyan Drake shows signs of being feature back

Kenyan Drake made significant strides on Sunday during Miami's 35-9 victory over the Denver Broncos. He rushed for a career-high 120 yards and a touchdown on 23 carries. The highlight was Drake's 42-yard run up the left sideline for a score in the second half.

When you include Drake's three receptions, he carried the football 26 times, which also was a career best.

"I think like one time in high school I ran the ball 25 times," Drake said. "But other than that, I don't think I've ever run the ball that much in my life. I could've ran it 20 more times with how the O-line was blocking, so give all the credit to them."
