Dolphins’ De’Von Achane Limited in Return to Practice After Rib MRI Clears Fracture

Coach Mike McDaniel says the running back has a positive outlook for Monday night against the Steelers.

Overview

  • Achane practiced Thursday on a limited basis in a red non-contact jersey as the team manages his rib injury.
  • An MRI showed no fracture, with earlier reporting indicating a day-to-day plan focused on treatment and practice rest.
  • Achane injured his ribs when he landed on the ball after a 29-yard run against the Jets, finishing with 92 rushing yards and a touchdown on seven carries.
  • McDaniel said whether Achane wears a flak jacket is up to the player, and he emphasized protecting the runner during preparations.
  • The Dolphins listed special-teamers Elijah Campbell and Caleb Johnson out of Thursday’s practice, with Johnson unlikely for Monday and Campbell considered day to day.
