Overview
- Coach Jeff Hafley announced Tuesday that Achane is cleared to join full-squad practices after rehabbing through limited, non-contact work in the spring.
- Achane underwent a left-shoulder 'clean-up' procedure in the offseason and signed a four-year, $64 million extension in May that raised expectations for his role.
- The Dolphins opened camp with a six-man running-back group and held tryouts on July 28 that included former Chiefs back Clyde Edwards-Helaire as they evaluate reliable depth.
- Offensive tackle Austin Jackson is also cleared to participate while cornerbacks Storm Duck and Darrell Baker and rookie receiver Chris Bell remain on uncertain recovery timelines, Hafley said.
- Achane’s availability gives first-year coach Jeff Hafley a chance to run full-contact installs and settle the backfield hierarchy ahead of joint practices, the preseason and the regular season.
