Schefter: Dolphins RB De'Von Achane (knee) to miss 'multiple weeks'

Oct 10, 2023

Dolphins RB De’Von Achane is expected to miss multiple weeks with his knee injury.

Related players: Raheem Mostert, Jeff Wilson

Fantasy Impact:

What started out as seemingly minor news on Monday about Achane's knee, has now turned into a possible several week loss for fantasy owners. Schefter added in his post that Achane is a candidate for IR as well, which would cause him to miss at least the next four games. The Dolphins are expected to add Wilson into the backfield mix with Achane exiting, and the duo of Mostert and Wilson will likely split up the workload. There's a chance Wilson, who is expected to come off IR (torso, thumb), is still on your waiver wire, and he will be a highly-targeted RB this week in your leagues.

Raiders RB Alexander Mattison set to return Week 15, Sincere McCormick still starting

Antonio Pierce stated that Sincere McCormick will remain the team’s starting running back even with Alexander Mattison nearing a return this week.

“He deserves it. … He has run his tail off.”

Fantasy Impact:

At 2-11, the Raiders would be silly to not see what they have in McCormick, with 31-year-old Abdullah and Mattison, who is on a one-year contract, only there to give the former UDFA a breather. Consider McCormick a volume-based RB3.

Giants QB Drew Lock in walking boot, Tommy DeVito set to start Week 15

Giants HC Brian Daboll told reporters that QB Drew Lock is in a walking boot due to a heel injury and Tommy DeVito now is expected to start Sunday vs. the Ravens.

Fantasy Impact:

The Ravens path to an overall D/ST1 finish on the week becomes a little clearer. DeVito can safely be kept on benches in SuperFlex leagues on a week with zero byes.

Bills WR Keon Coleman, TE Dalton Kincaid return to practice ahead of Week 15

Good news on the way for Buffalo: Bills WR Keon Coleman (wrist) and TE Dalton Kincaid (knee) are expected to practice fully today. A positive step forward in advance of the showdown with the Lions.

Fantasy Impact:

It's probably still best to start other options over Kincaid, as he takes on a Lions defense that ranks 4th in TE aFPA, but there could be a ton of points here, so if you're in a bind he makes sense as a top-15ish option.

As for Coleman, he's more in the boom/bust WR4 range as Shakir should continue standing atop the target share.
