Overview

  • General manager Chris Grier said all indications are that De’Von Achane will be ready to face the Colts on Sept. 7.
  • Achane has been managed conservatively with a calf injury after missing multiple practices and the final two preseason games.
  • Coach Mike McDaniel said Jaylen Wright underwent a small lower‑leg procedure and will miss time early in the season, though he was not placed on injured reserve.
  • Rookie Ollie Gordon II entered the initial 53 as the lone healthy running back, with Miami signing Jeff Wilson Jr. and JaMycal Hasty and planning additional veteran practice‑squad additions.
  • Tyreek Hill practiced in a limited capacity and is on track for Week 1, with right tackle Austin Jackson and safety Ashtyn Davis also trending toward availability.
