Malik Willis 'not seen throwing' at Dolphins bye-week practice Tue Oct 13, 10:53 AM
Dolphins QB Malik Willis was not seen throwing at the team's bye-week practice on Tuesday.
| Footballguys view: Willis took snaps and handoffs and performed an easy throwing motion with the ball in hand without releasing it. The bye-week day of drills is largely meant for players who have had limited playing time, so the fact that he's on the field is worth noting. That's especially true after coach Jeff Hafley gave the QB a vote of confidence when asked about Willis' job security on Monday. |

Dolphins | Hafley: 'Malik is our quarterback,' no thought of benching Willis Mon Oct 12, 02:53 PM
Dolphins head coach Jeff Hafley said Monday there is no thought of benching QB Malik Willis at this point. "We've played five games, and Malik is our quarterback," Hafley said.
| Footballguys view: Sunday was Willis' 11th career start, so it's fair to say he's still developing at this level. According to ESPN.com's Marcel Louis-Jacques, Willis' willingness to extend every play for as long as he can doesn't always help the QB's cause. At the same time, his receivers struggled to create separation, and the offense doesn't seem comfortable when Willis is buying time. There was an expected learning curve this season, but the Dolphins enter the Week 6 bye with little to hang their hats on from the first month. Nonetheless, Hafley plans to stay the course. |

Dolphins | Ollie Gordon II gets the start at RB against the Bengals Sun Oct 11, 01:10 PM
Dolphins RB Ollie Gordon II got the start at running back in Sunday's Week 5 game against the Bengals. Gordon ran for 100 yards and a touchdown in last Sunday's loss to the Vikings after Jaylen Wright lined up with the first-team offense in pregame warmups.

Dolphins | TE Justin Joly ruled out for Week 5 Fri Oct 9, 05:30 PM
Dolphins TE Justin Joly (concussion) is listed as out on the Week 5 injury report. Justin Joly did not participate in Friday's practice.
| Footballguys view: Joly isn't relevant in fantasy at the moment, logging just five special-teams snaps so far in the one game he's played. |

Dolphins | RB Kaytron Allen was claimed off waivers from Washington Fri Oct 9, 04:47 PM
Dolphins RB Kaytron Allen was claimed off waivers from Washington.
| Footballguys view: The Commanders decided to move on from Allen after just 12 touches. He'll have an opportunity to climb the depth chart in Miami, with De'Von Achane out for the year. He's worth a stash in deep leagues. |

Dolphins | Jaylen Wright questionable for Sunday vs. Bengals Fri Oct 9, 04:32 PM
Dolphins RB Jaylen Wright (foot) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Bengals. Wright was added to the injury report as a limited participant in Thursday's practice.
| Footballguys view: Wright opened the week off the injury report but was limited on Thursday with a foot injury. He was limited all of last week with that foot and a stinger, and it's unclear why he was added back to the report after a clean Wednesday. Ollie Gordon II looked good last week, and he's expected to lead the backfield for now. Wright could get more involved as he heals up. The Dolphins also claimed rookie Kaytron Allen, who could press for snaps in the coming weeks. Wright is a sit for now, but he's worth stashing as potential lightning to Gordon's thunder. |

Dolphins | Caleb Douglas (ankle) 'unlikely to play' Sunday against Bengals Fri Oct 9, 11:01 AM
Dolphins rookie WR Caleb Douglas (ankle) is unlikely to play Sunday against the Bengals, head coach Jeff Hafley said on Friday. Douglas worked on the side during practice on Thursday after not practicing on Wednesday.
| Footballguys view: It's a shame that Douglas is dealing with this injury, as the rookie was a bright spot early in the season on an otherwise disappointing Dolphins offense. Chris Bell and Malik Washington have been the top targets, with complementary skill sets as deep and short targets, respectively. |

Dolphins | Chris Bell (knee) limited in Wednesday's practice Wed Oct 7, 04:33 PM
Dolphins rookie WR Chris Bell (knee) was a limited participant in practice on Wednesday.
| Footballguys view: Bell caught 0-of-3 targets in the Dolphins' Week 4 loss to the Vikings. It was a disastrous outing to be sure, but there's some deep 'what the heck' flex appeal with Bell out there against the Bengals. |

Dolphins | Caleb Douglas 'doing better' but will not practice Wednesday Wed Oct 7, 12:44 PM
Dolphins WR Caleb Douglas will not practice on Wednesday, head coach Jeff Hafley said.
| Footballguys view: Hafley said the rookie is "doing better" but not enough to get back on the field yet. Douglas was ruled out of Sunday's loss to the Vikings. The rookie is a player we appreciate in dynasty formats. Malik Washington continues as the top receiver for the Dolphins, and he's got flex appeal for Fantasy GMs in that role. |

Dolphins | Caleb Douglas out at Vikings Fri Oct 2, 11:07 AM
Dolphins WR Caleb Douglas (ankle) will miss Sunday's game at the Vikings, his second straight absence.
| Footballguys view: Douglas will miss his second straight game after suffering an ankle injury in Week 2. The rookie looked like the team's top receiver before the injury and hopes to regain that role upon his return. Douglas will have a chance to return to practice again next week leading up to a game against the Bengals. |

Dolphins | Jeff Hafley says Jaylen Wright 'should be good to go' for Week 4 Fri Oct 2, 10:47 AM
Dolphins RB Jaylen Wright should be good to go for Sunday's game against the Vikings, head coach Jeff Hafley said on Friday. Wright improved to full participation at Thursday's practice.
| Footballguys view: Wright missed last week's game, leading to uncertainty about how this week's backfield will look without De'Von Achane. In the one game Achane missed last year, touches were split between Wright and Ollie Gordon II, with a slight lean toward Wright in both rushing and receiving. A new staff could shake up the depth chart, but the impression coming out of camp was that Wright had secured the RB2 spot. Wright hasn't had much work in his young NFL career, but he's a speedster who can bring a similar impact to Achane on stretch plays and outside zone runs. Gordon is more of a between-the-tackles runner, offering a natural complement. Both backs are risky RB3s in Week 4, and we'll hope for more clarity heading into Week 5. |

Dolphins | Jaylen Wright (foot) upgraded to full participant on Thursday Thu Oct 1, 05:32 PM
Dolphins RB Jaylen Wright (foot) was upgraded to a full participant in practice on Thursday. He had been a limited participant in Wednesday's practice. Wright's stinger was previously removed from the injury report, leaving only the foot issue.
| Footballguys view: The matchup against the Vikings on Sunday is "not great Bob." However, Wright has big-play ability anytime he touches the ball and is listed atop the depth chart for the Dolphins. We've got Wright as an RB4 in PPR formats this week. Ollie Gordon IIwill work in tandem with Wright, and we think he's in a similar flex/RB4 range. |

Dolphins | Jaylen Wright to be limited, Caleb Douglas will not practice Wednesday Wed Sep 30, 12:32 PM
Dolphins RB Jaylen Wright will be a limited participant in practice on Wednesday, head coach Jeff Hafley said. Rookie WR Caleb Douglas will not practice. Wright missed Sunday's game against the Chiefs, and Douglas was ruled out for that game. De'Von Achane was placed on injured reserve on Monday.
| Footballguys view: Fantasy GMs are looking to Wright, especially if they didn't get Ollie Gordon II on the waiver wire this week. The Dolphins are likely to use an RBBC featuring both Gordon and Wright (if healthy). Wright said he was "very close" to playing in Week 3, so we imagine he'll be out there in Week 4 barring any setback. We see Gordon as an RB3/flex option and Wright is a big-play RB4/deep flex option for Fantasy GMs in Week 4. |

Dolphins | Dolphins officially place De'Von Achane on IR Mon Sep 28, 04:02 PM
The Dolphins officially placed RB De'Von Achane on injured reserve on Monday, among other roster moves. Achane suffered a torn ACL and is out for the season.
| Footballguys view: This move was expected after we learned earlier today that Achane tore his ACL in the loss to Kansas City. Ollie Gordon II and Jaylen Wright, who was inactive due to injury in Week 3, are the top fallbacks on the active roster. Jarquez Hunter could be elevated from the practice squad as well, but expect Gordon and Wright to share Achane's workload. |

Dolphins | De'Von Achane suffers torn ACL, out for the season Mon Sep 28, 10:30 AM
Dolphins RB De'Von Achane suffered a torn ACL during Sunday's loss to the Chiefs and will be out for the season, according to sources.
| Footballguys view: This news doesn't come as a huge surprise. Achane was ruled out Sunday after exiting on the first drive with a knee injury, and head coach Jeff Hafley said after the game that "it does not sound optimistic." Ollie Gordon II is likely to handle the primary role going forward, with Jaylen Wright, who was inactive due to injury in Week 3, also having a role. Jarquez Hunter could be elevated from the practice squad as well, but expect Gordon and Wright to share Achane's workload. |

Dolphins | Hafley on De'Von Achane's knee injury: 'It does not sound optimistic' Sun Sep 27, 04:31 PM
Dolphins head coach Jeff Hafley said after Sunday's loss to the Chiefs that the outlook for RB De'Von Achane "does not sound optimistic," adding that the team is still gathering information. Achane exited on the first drive with a knee injury and was ruled out for the rest of the game after 3 carries for 17 yards.
| Footballguys view: Usually what follows news like this eventually is an announcement of a season-ending injury. Jaylen Wright was out for this game, and Ollie Gordon II scored and looked capable as a lead back after Achane went out. Anything less than out for the year will be a win at this point if you have Achane. |

Dolphins | Caleb Douglas (ankle) ruled out vs. Chiefs, Jaylen Wright doubtful Fri Sep 25, 12:09 PM
Dolphins WR Caleb Douglas (ankle) will not play in Sunday's home game against the Chiefs, head coach Jeff Hafley told reporters at his Friday press conference.
| Footballguys view: Douglas left last week's game with an ankle injury and couldn't practice through it in any capacity this week. In his absence, expect Malik Washington to see some extra work. Fellow rookie Chris Bell has been working through a knee issue as he recovers from ACL surgery, but he's expected to go and could see extra looks with Douglas inactive. However, De'Von Achane is really the only player you can confidently rely on in this offense right now, and "confidently" may oversell his utility. |

Dolphins | Chris Bell (knee) expected to play vs. Chiefs, Hafley says Fri Sep 25, 11:01 AM
Dolphins WR Chris Bell (knee) is expected to play against the Chiefs, head coach Jeff Hafley said on Friday.
| Footballguys view: Bell was limited early in the week with some swelling in his knee as he recovers from ACL surgery. He's played in each of the first two weeks and should be back out there in Week 3. Expect some midweek management on Bell's knee as the 22-year-old rookie gets up to speed in the NFL. |

Dolphins | Jaylen Wright (stinger/foot) 'doubtful' to play against Chiefs Fri Sep 25, 11:01 AM
Dolphins RB Jaylen Wright (stinger/foot) is doubtful to play against the Chiefs, coach Jeff Hafley said on Friday, September 25. Wright was limited in Thursday's practice with the foot injury.
| Footballguys view: Wright has seen little opportunity in his young career, behind De'Von Achane on the depth chart. With Wright expected to miss Sunday, that could create a few more opportunities for Ollie Gordon II. But this Dolphins offense hasn't had many bright spots early in the season. Achane is a back-end RB1, and no one else might matter consistently in fantasy. |

Dolphins | WR Caleb Douglas injured in the fourth quarter vs. 49ers Sun Sep 20, 07:01 PM
Dolphins WR Caleb Douglas was injured on a play in the fourth quarter of Sunday's game against the 49ers with 8:03 left. He did not return.
| Footballguys view: According to the Miami Herald, Douglas left the stadium in a walking boot. It's entirely possible the boot is a precaution, but if he can't play next week, the Dolphins will have to rely on Malik Washington, Chris Bell, Ryan Miller, and Kevin Coleman Jr. at wide receiver. |

Dolphins | Hafley: no pitch count for Chris Bell Wed Sep 9, 01:45 PM
Miami Dolphins rookie WRs Chris Bell and Caleb Douglas are starting receivers (at least in three-receiver sets), head coach Jeff Hafley confirms. Hafley added that there will be no pitch count on Bell.
| Footballguys view: Bell spent part of the offseason on the NFI list as he recovered from the torn ACL he suffered his final season in college at Louisville. The Dolphins are rebuilding this year, and that's why two third-round rookies are their starting wide receivers. We've got both Douglas and Bell as 'what the heck' flex plays in Week 1. |

Dolphins | Ollie Gordon II sheds no-contact jersey Tue Sep 8, 12:19 AM
Dolphins RB Ollie Gordon II is no longer in a red, no-contact jersey.
| Footballguys view: As CBSSports.com suggests, the running back may be ready to go for Miami's Week 1 matchup with the Raiders on Sunday, but he could also be held out as a precaution. The second-year pro is set to serve as the No. 3 option behind De'Von Achane and Jaylen Wright, meaning the Dolphins arguably have the luxury of giving Gordon an extra week to recover if necessary. |
