That journey continues with Sunday’s matchup against the Las Vegas Raiders, where the Dolphins need a win to keep pace in the AFC Wild Card race.</p><p>During the game, the Dolphins’ running game took a big hit when running back Raheem Mostert went down with a hip injury. He is currently <a href="https://x.com/RapSheet/status/1858218226125062411" rel="noopener">questionable to return</a>, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Media.</p><p>“Dolphins RB Raheem Mostert (hip) is questionable to return vs. the Raiders,” Rapoport reported on X, formerly Twitter.</p><p>Mostert only carried the ball twice before leaving the game, gaining two yards on those runs.</p><p>If he is unable to return, the Dolphins will miss Mostert as someone who can take some pressure of of Devon Achane in the Dolphins’ backfield as the speedy fantasy star is handling a massive workload in both the running and receiving game.</p><p>Entering Sunday, Mostert had just 214 yards on 55 carries with a pair of touchdowns in six games. He had a huge year for the Dolphins last year, eclipsing 1,000 yards on the ground for the first time in his career and scoring 18 rushing touchdowns.</p><p>The Dolphins got their season back on the right track in Week 10 with a big win on Monday Night Football against the Los Angeles Rams. That <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/dolphins-news-mike-mcdaniel-drops-warrior-jalen-ramsey-take-amid-knee-injury-battle">got Mike McDaniel and company back to 3-6 on the year</a>, but they still have a long way to go to make a playoff push. The Dolphins probably need to get to at last nine or 10 wins to make a real wild card push, so they need to start a long winning streak.</p><p>The schedule is manageable for the Dolphins. After this clash with the Raiders, the Dolphins will get another crack at the New England Patriots. They also have two games against the New York Jets and one against the Cleveland Browns down the stretch of the season, so a big run might not be as unlikely as it seems.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

Navigating <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/dolphins-news-mike-mcdaniel-explains-decision-to-start-tyler-huntley-vs-titans">an unpredictable quarterback situation</a> is already a daunting task, so it is essential that the rest of the offense remains intact. Alas, there is little fortune to be found inside Hard Rock Stadium these days.</p><p>Veteran running back and goal line force Raheem Mostert is <a href="https://twitter.com/TomPelissero/status/1840748319410098556" rel="noopener">not expected to suit up</a> against the Titans, per Tom Pelissero of NFL Network. Assuming he continues to trend in this downward direction, this will be the third consecutive game the 2023 Pro Bowl selection misses with a chest injury.</p><p><a href="https://clutchpoints.com/dolphins-news-tua-tagovailoa-hit-harsh-reality-local-doctor">Tua Tagovailoa’s scary concussion situation</a> carries potential ramifications that obviously go far beyond football, but his absence requires the Dolphins to depend on their other playmakers. That does not refer strictly to stars like Tyreek Hill, Jaylen Waddle or second-year RB De’Von Achane. Mostert brings valuable balance to head coach Mike McDaniel’s scheme.</p><h2><b>Raheem Mostert has given the Dolphins a big boost since his arrival</b></h2><p>The 32-year-old has served a key role in the Dolphins’ high-powered offensive attack over the last two seasons. He rushed for a mind-boggling and NFL-leading 18 touchdowns in 2023-24 while also averaging an efficient 4.8 yards per carry. The squad’s second-half collapse and one-and-done postseason showing drew the disparagement of many football fans, but without Mostert’s significant contributions, the franchise probably would not have earned its highest single-season win total (11) since 2008-09.</p><p>Injuries have consistently been a part of this player’s story, though. After logging 30 starts across two years and counting in Miami, there is concern that his durability could be waning. The Dolphins’ hope of wielding a healthy two-headed monster out of the backfield may simply not be attainable this year, and if it is, it might be Jaylen Wright who ends up doing damage alongside Achane.</p><p>The undrafted Raheem Mostert has made a living out of defying expectations, however. Perhaps he can do so again in 2024. But fans should not count on that happening in a <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/miami-dolphins-bold-predictions-for-week-4-monday-night-football-vs-titans">Monday Night Football matchup versus the Titans</a> (0-3).</p><p>The action kicks off at approximately 7:30 p.m. ET.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

Trusting Tyreek Hill with short passes in space and leaning on the lauded running back room seems like the most optimal route to victory for the Phins.</p><p>Unfortunately, however, injuries might also prevent head coach Mike McDaniel from implementing that plan to full effect. Veteran ball-carrier Raheem Mostert missed last Thursday’s blowout loss to the Buffalo Bills with a chest injury and is <a href="https://x.com/AdamSchefter/status/1837150748691370433" rel="noopener">in danger of  being ruled out</a> for a Week 3 road matchup versus the Seattle Seahawks (2-0). McDaniel is “pessimistic” about the 2023 Pro Bowler’s chances of taking the field on Sunday, per ESPN’s Adam Schefter.</p><h2><b>Can the Dolphins survive the Seahawks at less than full strength?</b></h2><p>De’Von Achane was active and explosive versus Buffalo (29 touches for 165 total yards and one touchdown) and should be good to handle <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/dolphins-news-mike-mcdaniel-no-reason-decrease-devon-achanes-workload">another big workload</a> in Seattle, but McDaniel loves the red-zone brilliance and depth that Mostert brings to the Dolphins. The 32-year-old, who is still relatively fresh after logging only 680 rushing attempts in his NFL career to this point, scored a mind-boggling 21 TDs and ran for a personal-best 1,012 yards in 15 games last season.</p><p>Miami obviously values Mostert’s skill set and would love to have another dependable player in the backfield after losing a major part of their offensive identity. Despite the gloomy forecast, he can defy the odds by registering a full practice session on Friday (was limited on Thursday).</p><p>The Dolphins are surely grateful to be <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/dolphins-predicting-miami-record-in-next-four-games-without-tua-tagovailoa">weathering their latest injury troubles</a> during what should be the softest stretch of their schedule. They do not face a team that made the playoffs in 2023-24 until a November game against the Bills. The Seahawks will present a tough challenge for a shorthanded squad, though. Mike McDaniel must employ his signature creativity if Miami is going to escape Lumen Field with a winning record.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

With the <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/dolphins-news-devon-achane-raheem-mostert-big-injury-updates-bills-clash">injuries to stars Raheem Mostert and De’Von Achane</a>, the Dolphins <a href="https://x.com/Schultz_Report/status/1834316419250700648" rel="noopener">bring reinforcements as they look to activate</a> rookie Jaylen Wright according to NFL insider Jordan Schultz.</p><p>“Dolphins rookie RB Jaylen Wright is expected to be active tonight vs the #Bills and make his NFL debut,” Schultz wrote on his X, formerly Twitter, account. “The 4th-round pick out of Tennessee was inactive for Week 1, but with Raheem Mostert out and De’Von Achane officially questionable, Wright is set to step in. He ran a blazing 4.38 40-yard dash at the NFL Combine.”</p><p>It was announced by Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel that Mostert <a href="https://media.miamidolphins.com/transcripts/" rel="noopener">will be out Thursday night</a> with a chest injury where Achane seemed more likely as he’s nursing an ankle injury.</p><p>“Raheem, no. De’Von, we’ll see how it plays out today,” McDaniel said Wednesday per the team’s transcripts. “Thursday night games are probably the – it probably should be your triggering point, because I (don’t know). You got to realize – what is today? Today is Wednesday, right? OK, guys are just typically – when we do have padded practices, we don’t even have them until Thursday because typically, after an NFL game, Wednesday, guys are still working through their ailments from the game previous. So there’s several guys that we’ll be feeling out and we’ll go from there.”</p><h2><b>Dolphins rookie ready to make impact after being inactive in Week 1</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/Jaylen-Wright-on-August-9-2024.jpg"><figcaption>Nathan Ray Seebeck-Imagn Images</figcaption></figure><p>If there is a bright side for the <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/dolphins-news-raheem-mostert-gets-injured-reserve-update-after-being-ruled-out-for-bills-clash">Dolphins running back in Mostert, it’s that he doesn’t need to go on the injured reserve</a> list as the issue doesn’t appear to be long-term. <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/dolphins-news-devon-achane-playing-bills-catch">Achane on the other hand will test the injury right before the game</a> to see if he can go, which no doubt leads to more usage for the rookie in Wright.</p><p>The Texas Longhorns product was drafted with the Dolphins’ fourth round pick where per the run-on joke of which players McDaniel likes, he is extremely fast. As Schulz said in his social media post, he ran a 4.38 in the 40-yard dash at the NFL Combine, but was a healthy scratch for the opener against the Jacksonville Jaguars as Miami offensive coordinator Frank Smith explained the decision.</p><p>“Whenever you get a healthy inactive, it goes into what are the needs of the roster and where do you need guys,” Smith said Tuesday. “And a lot of the times, it’s special teams needs, defensive needs, what style of offense you’re playing, so there’s multiple variables that go into decisions or who’s inactive. But he’s done a great job, we’re really excited about him.

His injury is not considered to be season-ending or long-term, and Mostert should be back sooner, rather than later,” NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport tweeted.</p><p>Mostert suffered the chest injury in Week 1 against the Jacksonville Jaguars.

Against the Jacksonville Jaguars, Achane had 24 rushing yards with a touchdown and had seven catches for 76 yards.</p><p>Luckily for the Dolphins, they have enough capable running backs to step up, and Jeff Wilson will be next in line if neither Mostert nor Achane can play. Jaylen Wright will also be in line for some playing time. He was the fourth-round pick for the Dolphins in 2024 and had a 1,000-yard rushing season with Tennessee in 2023.</p><p>Last week, Wright was inactive for the Dolphins, and Wilson led the team with 26 rushing yards. Week 2 could look a bit different for both running backs, but the Dolphins could elect to go more of the passing route against the Bills, especially if it becomes a high-scoring game. Josh Allen has some of his highest passing yard games against the Dolphins, and Tua Tagovailoa has the receivers to match that.</p><p>Hopefully, the Dolphins’ backfield can get healthy enough for the rest of the season.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

With originally having <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/dolphins-news-miami-de-von-achane-raheem-mostert-injury-updates-bills-showdown">worrisome news surrounding Dolphins running backs Raheem Mostert (chest) and De’Von Achane</a> (ankle), <a href="https://x.com/flasportsbuzz/status/1833876524077875253" rel="noopener">the former is out while the latter is expected to be a game-time decision</a> according to Barry Jackson of The Miami Herald.</p><p>Jackson would mention in a post on X, formerly Twitter, that Miami head coach Mike McDaniel would say on the topic of Achane that “we will see how it plays out” about the sophomore running back. In terms of Mostert, McDaniel would say that “his injury, not many people play with” which was a chest issue he suffered early in the Dolphins’ win over the Jaguars.</p><p>The injury for Mostert does put into perspective how he only had six carries in Sunday’s win for nine yards while Achane led Miami with 10 to go along with 24 yards and a score as he also caught seven passes for 76 yards through the air. However, if both backs can not go, one would have to think it will be Jeff Wilson Jr. who had key runs Sunday and rookie Jaylen Wright, who was inactive, that will lead the backfield.</p><p>Losing Mostert would be a huge deal since he was absolutely dynamite last season where he recorded 21 total touchdowns to go along with 1,012 yards on the ground. If there is a positive, it’s that Achane was seen practicing Wednesday <a href="https://x.com/CameronWolfe/status/1833886825267499135" rel="noopener">“in what appeared to be a lighter walkthrough session”</a> according to Cameron Wolfe of NFL Network.</p><figure class="op-interactive"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="en">De’Von Achane practiced today in what appeared to be a lighter walkthrough session.</p><p>Watched him go thru all RB drills &amp; reps including changing direction/catching passes on his ankle.

Each guy is going through a process on the turnaround, so we know it’s going to be a full process for each guy as we get ready for Thursday.”</p><p>While Mostert’s statistics were great, Achane was as well where he emerged as one of the more explosive running backs in the league where he rushed for 800 yards while averaging a whopping 7.8 yards per carry. Smith would be asked about what the preparation is like when the status of the two top running backs are in doubt which he credited their “offseason program” as being built for that.</p><p>“I think it kind of goes into the whole offseason program and the way we approach things,” Smith said. “So that way we try and be versatile with all the guys and make sure we can understand where they can fit with the roster, and when we have any issues and guys got to step up in different roles and stuff like that, we have a good feeling of knowing what they can do. And that’s the good thing about this football team; we have a bunch of guys that are very willing to do whatever is necessary and have complete skill sets. Whatever happens when we go to Thursday, we’ll have a plan to be able to get ourselves in the best position for competing on Thursday versus Buffalo.”</p><p><a href="https://clutchpoints.com/dolphins-bills-fantasy-football-week-2-start-sit">The Dolphins face the Bills Thursday night</a> at home.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

One key player fans have been hoping to see return is Raheem Mostert. He’s been incredibly reliable over the years and proved to be a great option under Mike McDaniel’s scheme. Now, Mostert re-signs for a new deal!</p><p>Raheem Mostert <a href="https://twitter.com/RapSheet/status/1773799885210308674" rel="noopener">officially signed a</a> two-year $9.075 million contract, according to Ian Rapoport of The NFL Network. That’s the maximum amount Mostert can make over the next two seasons with the Dolphins.</p><p>“The Dolphins and RB Raheem Mostert agreed to terms on a new, 2-year deal worth $9.075M max, source said. One of the most productive in the NFL.”</p><p>Mostert turned out to pair well with rookie running back De’Von Achane. The two of them went ballistic last season and should do the same in 2024. The Dolphins have one of the more electric rushing attacks and Raheem Mostert plays a large part in that. This is a great signing for Miami.</p><p>Last season, Mostert had a career year, putting up career highs for yards (1,012) and touchdowns (18 rushing, 3 receiving). With Mostert returning to the backfield, the Dolphins’ rushing attack should be in full swing.</p><h2>Raheem Mostert’s 2024 season outlook with Dolphins</h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/03/Dolphins_-Raheem-Mostert-celebrating-a-touchdown.jpg"><figcaption>Sam Navarro-USA TODAY Sports</figcaption></figure><p>Although Mostert is 31 years old, he’s proven to be a reliable asset in McDaniel’s offense. So far, the veteran running back has gotten better with age after having a rocky start to his career. With that said, he’s in a prime position to have another career year <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/dolphins-news-mike-mcdaniel-harsh-nfl-reality-losing-christian-wilkins-robert-hunt">with the Dolphins</a>.</p><p>We should still expect Mostert to split carries with Achane. The NFL has been trending toward a two-running back system these last few years now. So, it make sense for the Dolphins to continue that trend in 2024.</p><p>Raheem Mostert and De’Von Achane both have similar running styles. However, Achane has youth on his side. He likely would have received more carries last season if it wasn’t for the injuries. That was something Mostert largely benefited from. So, it’s possible Mostert struggles to break 1,000 rushing yards in back-to-back seasons.</p><p>At the end of the day, the Dolphins have an electric offense. Tua Tagovailoa came into his own and proved he can be a franchise quarterback. With Tyreek Hill and Jayden Waddle opening up the offense, it’s allowed the running game to feast on opposing defenses when they least expect it.</p><p>Look for Raheem Mostert to have another efficient season. Although his overall numbers could drop if Achane can stay healthy, Mostert can still provide the consistency the Dolphins need out of the backfield. Miami should be one of the better offenses next season with the number of weapons they have.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

Because of the expected frigid temperatures, Mostert and De’Von Achane will be significant for the rushing attack <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl-playoffs-2024-the-biggest-obstacle-each-team-faces-in-super-wild-card-weekend" rel="noopener">of Miami to control</a> the pace of the game.</p><p>It doesn’t need to be said how valuable Mostert has been for the Dolphins this season as he has rushed for 1,012 yards while having 21 total touchdowns, the most in franchise history in a single-season. Having a one-two punch of Mostert and Achane could result in a lot of headaches for Kansas City despite having the advantage of the weather.</p><h2><b>Waddle and Mostert also “good to go” for Dolphins</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/dolphins-news-jaylen-waddle-raheem-mostert-get-official-injury-designations-for-chiefs-playoff-game_copy.webp"></figure><p>Rapoport said that the same situation for Mostert applies for Waddle who missed the past few weeks, but should be rested, and expected to play in the wild-card playoff game for Miami. He was dealing with a high ankle sprain with some rumors suggesting he would be shut down for the rest of the season, but he should be “good to go” per Rapoport.</p><p>Waddle makes the passing offense more dynamic as without him, it was slowed down due to opposing defenses keying in on superstar receiver Tyreek Hill. The University of Alabama product has caught 72 passes for 1,014 yards, and four touchdowns this season.</p><p><a href="https://clutchpoints.com/dolphins-fatal-flaw-that-will-doom-them-in-2024-nfl-playoffs" rel="noopener">This is great news for Miami</a> who have been dealing with horrendous luck in terms of injuries, especially on the defensive side of the ball. They have lost players like Jaelan Phillips, Bradley Chubb, Jerome Baker, Andrew Van Ginkle, and now Xavien Howard who is out Saturday night, though if Miami wins, he wouldn’t be ruled out immediately.</p><h2><b>Mike McDaniel called the stars a “good questionable”</b></h2><p>Both Mostert and Waddle have been questionable all week with their participation in practice limited. However, Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel said to the media Thursday that they are a “good questionable.”</p><p>“That’s a good questionable. Short weeks, you really have to take it up to the end-of-the-week clock. Specifically with those two, you want to make sure everything you’re doing, that you’re pressing them enough. Not too much, but you kind of have to be able to forecast what’s going to happen in the game all things equal,” McDaniel said. “That doesn’t mean they can’t get injured on – I think the last time we played the Chiefs, Jaylen Waddle got rolled up on in the second play of the game. You can’t forecast those types of things, but you need to know that the player you’re taking into the game has, with your best inclination, a reasonable chance to play the entire game. That’s where we’re kind of at right now.”</p><p>McDaniel would say that the two haven’t suffered any setbacks which should be great to <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/dolphins-chiefs-prediction-odds-pick-for-afc-wild-card" rel="noopener">hear for fans of Miami</a>. However, there should be slight concern that because of the weather they will face, players could be prone to further injuries. The weather is predicted to be “-4 degrees, with a “real feel” of -27 degrees Fahrenheit with wind gusts of nearly 30 miles an hour.”</p><p><a href="https://clutchpoints.com/how-to-watch-chiefs-vs-dolphins-on-peacock-streaming-info-date-time-for-nfl-playoff-game" rel="noopener">That type of weather and Miami</a> don’t go well with each other. However, they will have to adapt as the Dolphins will look to win their first playoff game since 2000, but they’ll have to face the defending Super Bowl champions in the Chiefs Saturday night as the game will be broadcasted on the streaming service Peacock.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

With the AFC East title hanging in the balance, Miami is entering their Week 18 game against the Buffalo Bills wounded. Their Week 17 tilt against was a brutal loss to the Baltimore Ravens in more ways than one. Many <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/dolphins-xavien-howards-official-status-after-getting-carted-off-with-foot-injury-in-week-17" rel="noopener">key starters</a> got injured during that game.</p><p>Ahead of the crucial Week 18 Bills game, the Dolphins got some <a href="https://twitter.com/TomPelissero/status/1743862361679651272" rel="noopener">important injury updates</a> about star WR Jaylen Waddle and All-Pro RB Raheem Mostert from Tom Pelissero. Both Waddle and Mostert will be unavailable for the clash against Buffalo. Thankfully, they should be a go for the postseason.</p><p>“#Dolphins RB Raheem Mostert (knee/ankle) and WR Jaylen Waddle (ankle) — both listed as questionable — are not expected to play Sunday night vs. the #Bills, per me and @RapSheet. Both should be ready for the playoffs. But Miami will try to win the AFC East without them.”</p><p>The Dolphins have already clinched a playoff spot this season, but their game against the Bills is for all of the AFC East marbles. The winner of this game <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/dolphins-news-how-mike-mcdaniel-truly-feels-about-bills-ahead-of-week-18-clash" rel="noopener">clinches the division,</a> and earns at least one home playoff game this season. While a playoff game at home with fans sounds nice, ultimately, the Dolphins are likely valuing the deep playoff run. Risking an injury to get a home playoff game is just not good.</p><p>Miami has high aspirations for this season. After multiple injuries to Tua Tagovailoa last season, the team is finally playing up to their potential. There are some red flags: Their seeming inability to defeat “good teams” is definitely concerning.

However, with the Dolphins witnessing the season-ending injury for top pass-rusher Bradley Chubb, there is a question if Miami can lose more key players.</p><p>Waddle had an ankle injury in the win against the Dallas Cowboys and missed last weekend’s game against the Baltimore Ravens. There was speculation about him missing the Bills game, but it is still up in the air. The University of Alabama product has caught 72 passes for 1,014 yards to go with his four touchdowns on the season.</p><h2><b>McDaniel talks about the steps for Waddle’s injury</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/dolphins-news-mike-mcdaniel-leaves-door-open-for-jaylen-waddle-in-week-17-despite-ankle-injury.webp"></figure><p>McDaniel said Wednesday that the star wide receiver is working with the training staff and if there isn’t any setbacks, they will work on the next steps.</p><p>“He’ll be working with the training staff to make sure there’s no setbacks and see where he’s at,” McDaniel said. “If all signs are a go, then we’ll give some practice reps a try, see how he responds to that. With steady communication with everyone involved, we’ll come to a decision on that. The team is prepared to play without him, but the team would also love to play with him, so we’ll see how his ankle decides.”</p><p>As for Mostert, he was usually present on the injury report throughout the season, but has played through the issues. However, he sat the game against the Ravens as he deals with ankle and knee injuries, which halted his usage in the game against the Cowboys. He has been a marvel for the Dolphins as he has amassed 1,012 rushing yards, 175 receiving yards, and 21 total touchdowns.</p><p><a href="https://clutchpoints.com/bills-vs-dolphins-prediction-odds-pick-for-nfl-week-18-game" rel="noopener">If the Dolphins</a> are once again without those two players against a dangerous Bills team, Sunday night could be fully focused on superstar receiver Tyreek Hill coming up huge alongside quarterback Tua Tagovailoa. The two AFC East rivals will duke it out for the division crown at Hard Rock Stadium on Sunday Night Football.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>
