Team news: Miami Dolphins | Page 10

Dolphins RB Raheem Mostert, who is out tonight with a chest injury, is not expected to be placed on Injured Reserve. His injury is not considered to be season-ending or long-term, and Mostert should be back sooner, rather than later.

This is great news for Mostert drafters, and he needs to be kept on all rosters moving forward. It sounds like there's a chance he could be back as soon as Week 3.

Dolphins RB Devon Achane, dealing with an ankle sprain, will work out pregame tonight to determine his availability against the Bills. But based on how he feels and how he practiced yesterday, there is optimism that he plays, per me and Cameron Wolfe, even on a short week.

With Raheem Mostert already ruled out, Achane's availability is going to very seriously impact a running back rotation that is always heavily involved in this explosive offense. As it stands, if Achane plays, he need to be in lineups due to his incredible efficiency.

RB De'Von Achane will be a game time decision

Wilson is a must-start if Achane misses Week 2, and is probably not a bad Flex play, even if he does. The Dolphins have proven —like the 49ers— that whoever is getting the touches is immediately fantasy-relevant. Add Wilson everywhere you can, and maybe even Wright if you can't get to Wilson.

The Dolphins’ injury report remained the same Tuesday as it was estimated Monday. That’s not good news for the running back position.

Running backs De’Von Achane (ankle) and Raheem Mostert (chest) did not participate. Wide receiver Malik Washington (quad) also was a non-participant.

As the story pointed out, neither Achane nor Mostert left the game with their injuries, though the Dolphins gave Jeff Wilson Jr. five rushing attempts in the fourth quarter with Achane getting four and Mostert two. Achane played 37 total snaps and Mostert 31 in the victory over the Jaguars. On a short week, this will need to be monitored leading up to Thursday night.

Pierce said the Raiders will roll with the hot hand at RB.

The post said Mattison's wife actually went into labor on Sunday right before the game and their baby later that night, and that Pierce sounded pleased with what Mattison put on tape. Mattison had just five carries to White's 13, but Mattison made his mark in the passing game when he hauled in four catches for 43 yards and the team's only TD. Mattison has flashed in the past playing for the Vikings, so it's not a surprise he could earn himself more carries. This could end up being a tough situation week-to-week for fantasy owners of both White and Mattison, however. Mattison is likely available on your wire and if you're in need at RB, may be worth a pickup.

Raheem Mostert has a chest injury and De’Von Achane sustained an ankle ailment, the Dolphins’ Monday injury report revealed.

With a short week ahead and a game on Thursday night against the Bills, the two will need to be monitored by fantasy owners. The story went on to say while the team did not practice Monday, both Mostert and Achane were deemed they would’ve been non-participants if practice were held.

Matt LaFleur says Malik Willis is Packers starting quarterback until Jordan Love returns from knee injury: "If Jordan is not cleared, then we'll start Malik, and [Sean Clifford] will be the backup."

The Packers traded for Willis right before the start of the season and he jumps over Clifford as the starter if Love is out. Love could miss up to three weeks according to reports. LaFleur did say "If Jordan is not cleared," perhaps leaving the door open for Week 2. However, that seems unlikely according to other reports and he's expected to at least miss Week 2. Willis is worth picking up in deeper leagues or in two QB or superflex leagues. He hasn't shown much in his limited time with Tennessee, but the Packers are loaded with weapons on offense and with Willis's ability to run, it makes him an interesting play if needed.

Adam Schefter of ESPN reports that the Panthers will leave Jonathon Brooks on the non-football injury list for the start of the regular season. That will remove him from the active roster and will leave him ineligible to play in the first four games of the regular season.

Brooks tore his ACL during his final season at Texas, but the Panthers still selected him in the second round in April, the story said. The story added the team was hoping to have Brooks back by Week 3 or 4, but are taking it slow with him. Hubbard should be the guy to own in terms of fantasy with Sanders also getting his work. Brooks is still expected to be back, and is very likely to take over the RB1 role at some point soon after his return.

Titans are sending QB Malik Willis to the Packers in exchange for a 2025 seventh-round pick, per sources.

Willis is now likely to back up Love while the move pushes Clifford out as the Packers QB2. In Tennessee, Rudolph looks to be the Titans QB2 behind Levis.

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill is apparently dealing with a minor thumb injury that will keep him out of most, if not all, of Wednesday’s joint practice with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Hill has been spotted wearing a brace on his injured hand, but head coach Mike McDaniel said he is not concerned about his availability for Week 1. Keep drafting him as a top-end fantasy asset.
