Report: MRI Shows No Fracture for Dolphins RB De’Von Achane as Week 15 Nears

After his rib injury against the Jets, Miami kept him out by choice, with Mike McDaniel emphasizing a health‑first approach.

Overview

  • Achane exited in the second quarter against the Jets with a rib injury that raised concerns about his short‑term availability.
  • Mike McDaniel said Achane could have returned in an emergency, but the staff elected not to risk it during a lopsided game.
  • NFL Network’s Cameron Wolfe reports the MRI showed no fracture and that Achane is not expected to miss time, with treatment and light practice work planned.
  • McDaniel indicated he will play Achane against the Steelers if he is medically ready, keeping the evaluation active ahead of Monday night.
  • Achane is described as the engine of Miami’s offense, and his presence would challenge Pittsburgh’s struggling run defense.
