Dolphins standout rookie running back De’Von Achane is expected to miss multiple weeks due to a knee injury suffered in Sunday’s win over the Giants, according to a report from ESPN’s Adam Schefter.
Schefter added that Achane could end up being placed on injured reserve if further evaluations determine that he will miss a significant amount of time. NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero and Ian Rapoport added that the injury to Achane’s knee is not expected to be season-ending.
The injury to Achane should open up more carries for Raheem Mostert, while Jeff Wilson Jr. will also be expected to contribute once he returns from his own IR stint.
