It seemed immediately after Week 18 that Miami would proceed with HC Mike McDaniel in place. But that changed Thursday when the team fired him. That move follows the in-season ouster of GM Chris Grier. McDaniel spent the past four years at the Dolphins helm after one year as 49ers OC and four others as run-game coordinator.

Dolphins RB De'Von Achane (shoulder) is inactive for today’s game vs. the Patriots. RBs Jaylen Wright, Ollie Gordon, Donovan Edwards, and Jeff Wilson are active for Miami. We’re expecting Wright to lead the backfield, but Gordon is a threat to take work.

Dolphins RB De'Von Achane (shoulder) is listed as doubtful for Sunday’s game vs. the Patriots. He didn’t practice all week and is obviously a long shot to play. Achane’s absence will leave the backfield to Jaylen Wright and Ollie Gordon. Wright has played ahead of Gordon more often than not lately, including when Achane exited the Week 14 game against the Jets. Wright out-carried Gordon 24 to five in that one. We’ll look for any clues on Miami’s backfield plans in the finale, but consider Wright the better fantasy bet for now.

Dolphins RB De'Von Achane (shoulder) did not practice on Wednesday. We don't have any other info on the shoulder issue, but Achane could be held out of this weekend's game vs. the Patriots with Miami having nothing to play for. We'll keep you updated on his status. Achane's absence would leave the backfield to Jaylen Wright and Ollie Gordon.

Dolphins RB De'Von Achane (ribs) is not listed on the final Week 15 injury report. He practiced all week, including a full workout on Saturday. The rib injury adds some risk to Achane's fantasy profile, but we're expecting him to play his usual high-volume role against the Steelers on Monday night.

Dolphins RB De'Von Achane (ribs) got in a limited practice on Thursday. He donned a no-contact jersey. Achane isn't a lock to be ready for Monday night's game vs. the Steelers, but he seems to be trending in the right direction. We'll update his status again tomorrow. RB Jaylen Wright remains worth stashing in virtually all fantasy leagues in the meantime.

Dolphins RB De'Von Achane's availability for next Monday night's game vs. the Steelers "looks good," ESPN's Marcel Louis-Jacques said after attending HC Mike McDaniel's Monday press conference. McDaniel said Achane hurt his ribs when he fell on the ball at the end of his 29-yard run vs. the Jets. Achane got an MRI on Monday, which seemingly came back clean. He's "feeling better today," McDaniel added. We'll keep an eye on the situation, but Achane can be penciled into Week 15 fantasy lineups for now. RBs Jaylen Wright and Ollie Gordon are still worth stashing on benches in the vast majority of fantasy leagues.

Dolphins HC Mike McDaniel said after Sunday's win over the Jets that RB De'Von Achane (ribs) was available to return in an emergency. Asked whether Achane will be ready for Week 15, McDaniel said: “I promise you, he’ll be in there if he’s ready.” We'll keep you updated on Achane's status this coming week. He has an extra day to heal up with the Dolphins playing in Pittsburgh on Monday night. Jaylen Wright dominated backfield work sans Achane today, carrying 24 times for 107 yards and a score. He's the priority add off waivers this week, but RB Ollie Gordon is also worth stashing.

Dolphins RB De'Von Achane suffered a rib injury in the second quarter of Sunday's game vs. the Jets. He walked back to the locker room with trainers and is officially questionable to return. Achane's absence leaves Miami's backfield to Jaylen Wright and Ollie Gordon. Wright has surprisingly out-carried Gordon 8 to 0 thus far.
