        Jaylen Wright Stalled at Goal Line with First-Team Offense

        Dolphins RB Jaylen Wright got goal-line work with the first team in the preseason game against the Bears. After a six-yard run to the 2-yard line, he was stopped on three straight carries. A potential sleeper this season, it was a disappointing showing, though he later scored a seven-yard TD with the second team.

        What They're Saying

        Omar Kelly of the Miami Herald: "So we got four straight runs inside the 5-yard line by the Dolphins and the final resulted in a 3-yard loss by Jaylen Wright. Turnover on downs.
        At least they are working on it."

        2025 Fantasy Football Impact

        Wright’s overall game depends on the eye of the beholder.

        He had an impressive 6-yard run from the 8, setting up the Dolphins on the 2-yard line, showing power and a lower pad level to plow through traffic.

        Then he got three straight goal-line carries that ended in a turnover on downs.

        The blocking was poor on all three runs, but Wright failed to keep his balance through contact each time.

        On the flip side, his second-quarter TD was impressive, showcasing burst through the line and breaking arm tackles on the way to the end zone.

        Overall, it’s encouraging to see Wright getting a role with the first-team offense, but the sequence won’t inspire confidence in taking De’Von Achane off the field.
