The Dolphins placed CB Jalen Ramsey, OL Robert Jones, and RB Jeff Wilson Jr. on injured reserve. They’re out at least four games; Ramsey is expected back in December.

Unless this adds fuel to the fire for the team to sign a veteran free agent (which is absolutely possible), the backfield belongs to Raheem Mostert and rookie Devon Achane for at least four games. Both of their values should jump into the RB3/4 range, but it's hard to get more excited than that, as the team as reportedly been shopping for RB help for months now.

Dolphins are releasing running back Myles Gaskin.

Gaskin is the odd man out in a pretty crowded Miami RB room. The drafting of Achane likely cost Gaskin a roster spot. It looks to be a three-headed monster with Wilson and Mostert as well. But Achane's stock is climbing and he could end up leading the way in touches as we get deeper into the 2023 season. The Dolphins are also rumored to be hot on the trail of current Colts RB Jonathan Taylor.

Dolphins RB Devon Achane is also dealing with a shoulder injury. He's week to week and avoided serious injury.

QB Mike White is also in concussion protocol.

Achane has been a highly-touted rookie RB who has gained a lot of traction, especially early on in dynasty leagues. Achane's biggest asset is his speed, and talk was building he'd have a significant role in the Dolphins offense because of HC Mike McDaniel's love of fast players. He still was going to lose touches to Wilson and Mostert, so it remained to be seen how much of the workload he could garner. This setback could end up costing him some work, at least to start the season. But the good news is he avoided a more serious injury.

Devon Achane, a third-round rookie, has "already looked like one of the Dolphins' more explosive offensive players."

Beat writer Louis-Jacques would continue, "Even in non-padded team drills, Achane showed prowess as a pass-catcher and home run ability after the catch. It's a crowded running back room in Miami, but it may not be long before the rookie has a prominent role. "

We already have Achane ranked clear tiers above Raheem Mostert and Jeff Wilson, as the RB27. Those of us who have been grabbing Achane throughout best ball drafts continue to hold our breath that the team won't sign a veteran in the vein of Dalvin Cook or Ezekiel Elliot.

Free-agent RB Jeff Wilson is re-signing with the Dolphins on a two-year deal that has a max value of $8.2 million.

In one day, Dolphins keep both Wilson and Raheem Mostert.

Miami started the day with essentially no running backs on the roster. Now they return the two-headed attack that propelled the Dolphins offense to the 26th-most rushing yards per game.

The Dolphins sent a 2023 fifth-round pick to San Francisco in exchange for running back Jeff Wilson, NFL Network Insider Tom Pelissero reported.

It's a smooth pickup for Miami, reuniting Wilson with Mike McDaniel, the Niners' offensive coordinator in 2021, the story said. Wilson will take the place of Chase Edmonds, who was sent to Denver as part of the Chubb deal. Wilson owns burst through the hole, generating 486 yards and two touchdowns in eight games with San Francisco this season, the story added. With Edmonds not really a factor in the Dolphins offense as of late, Wilson could certainly steal more snaps and touches from Mostert going forward.

Deebo Samuel (hamstring) is OUT for Sunday's game against the Rams.

Related Players: Brandon Aiyuk, Jeff Wilson

Deebo being out should open things up for Brandon Aiyuk to become more a focal point of the passing game. There's a chance this allows Jeff Wilson to relieve Christian McCaffrey more often, making the backup a desperation Flex option.

Stunner: Panthers are trading Pro-Bowl RB Christian McCaffrey to the San Francisco 49ers in exchange for draft picks, sources tell ESPN.

McCaffrey returns to the Bay Area, where he attended Stanford.

This should enhance McCaffrey's value since the 49ers run a more competent offense than the Panthers. Elijah Mitchell is no longer expected to be a fantasy starter upon his return from injury, and can be dropped if necessary. He's an attrition RB2 now. Jimmy Garoppolo should benefit by having such a good receiving back to throw to, but targets are already at a premium, so Deebo Samuel, Brandon Aiyuk and George Kittle each take a slight hit. In Carolina, we'll likely see a committee consisting of D'Onta Foreman on early downs and Chuba Hubbard as a third-down/change-of-pace back. On the season, Foreman has played 31 snaps while Hubbard has played 30. Foreman has 12 touches (all carries), while Hubbard has six carries and one reception.

Head coach Kyle Shanahan said on Monday that third-round pick Tyrion Davis-Price is going to miss “a few weeks” after suffering a high-ankle sprain in Sunday’s win over the Seahawks.

Related players: Elijah Mitchell, Jeff Wilson, Kyle Juszczyk, Jordan Mason, Marlon Mack

The Niner RBs are falling fast as this comes after the team lost Mitchell for about 8 weeks, according to reports. With Wilson the lead back, Mason now becomes an injury away from possibly seeing a significant fantasy role. Juszczyk could continue to steal goal line TDs.
