The Workhorse Dilemma: De'Von Achane and the Price of Stardom De'Von Achane's workload is set to become a defining feature of the Dolphins' 2026 offense, with coach Jeff Hafley promising to put his star running back in situations that few players can handle.
According to projections, Achane could see at least 40 touches per game, potentially more. This would be a significant increase from last season's totals, when he averaged over 20 touches per outing.
Achane's career high total of 305 touches in 2025 already puts him among the league's most durable players. His workload last season was astronomical, with 238 carries and 67 receptions.
