De'Von Achane: Limited Impact In Dolphins' Week 2 Victory
by Jesse Garcia | Dolphins Correspondent | Mon, Sep 18th 8:16am EDT
In the Dolphins' Week 2 triumph over the Patriots, De'Von Achane had a modest showing, contributing a total of 9 yards from scrimmage.
Fantasy Impact:
The 21-year-old rookie running back had a single carry for 5 yards and caught his only target for 4 yards. Despite the Dolphins' 24-17 victory, Achane's limited involvement in the offense resulted in a quiet fantasy day, keeping him at RB52 for the week and RB69 for the season. His lone carry came in the third quarter, where he rushed left tackle for 5 yards before being tackled. His only reception also came in the third, a short right pass from Tua Tagovailoa, which he took for 4 yards before being brought down. Looking ahead, Achane and the Dolphins will face the Denver Broncos in Week 3, where he'll look to increase his involvement and climb the fantasy rankings. Fantasy managers should expect Raheem Mostert to continue to carry the load for the Dolphins moving forward.
