Achane rushed 22 times for 96 yards and secured all seven targets for 69 yards and a touchdown in the Dolphins' 31-10 loss to the Bills on Thursday night.
Achane was the biggest part of the Dolphins offense on a troublesome night overall that saw Tua Tagovailoa exit with a concussion late in the third quarter. Miami struggled to move the ball all night even when Tagovailoa was in the contest, with the notable exception of the majority of times it was in Achane's hands. The explosive second-year pro scored his team's only touchdown on a five-yard reception in the first quarter, and he handled a career-high 22-carry workload well in the absence of Raheem Mostert (chest). Achane also has encouragingly drawn 14 targets over the first two games and caught all of them while averaging 10.4 yards per grab. Irrespective of who's under center, the heavy usage should continue for arguably the Dolphins' best all-around offensive player in a Week 3 road matchup versus the Seahawks on Sunday, Sept. 22.
