The Miami Dolphins may be drifting on the outskirts of the playoff hunt at 5-7, their postseason hopes dimming with each passing week, but one thing has remained undeniably bright: the emergence and week-to-week brilliance of De’Von Achane.
While 2025 hasn’t unfolded the way Miami hoped, Achane has become one of the most reliable, explosive, and identity-defining players not only on the roster, but in all of football -- a player whose presence goes well beyond whatever happens in December.
With 186 carries and over 1,000 rushing yards already, Achane has transformed from an intriguing third-round pick out of Texas A&M with world-class speed to one of the NFL’s most dangerous running backs.
