Overview
- Multiple outlets reported Wednesday that Miami and De'Von Achane agreed to a four-year extension with $32 million guaranteed, with totals reported as a $64 million base that can reach $68 million with incentives.
- The reported terms put his average pay around $16–$17 million per year, which ranks third among NFL running backs behind Saquon Barkley and Christian McCaffrey.
- General manager Jon-Eric Sullivan had called Achane a building block during the team’s roster overhaul under new coach Jeff Hafley, and the back skipped early voluntary workouts while negotiations advanced.
- Achane earned his first Pro Bowl in 2025 after rushing for 1,350 yards with eight rushing touchdowns and adding 67 receptions for 488 yards.
- The commitment stands out in a market wary of big running back deals and signals Achane will headline Miami’s retooled offense with quarterback Malik Willis.
