• Dolphins' Jaylen Wright: Week 3 Waiver Priority List

  2D ago • By Jamey Eisenberg

  We'll see what happens with Raheem Mostert (chest) and Jeff Wilson (oblique) heading into Week 3 at Seattle, but Wright could be the No. 2 running back in Miami behind De'Von Achane for now. It might not lead to many touches, and the Dolphins offense could struggle with Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) hurt. But Wright could also be in line for a lot of work if something were to happen to Achane while Mostert is out. Wright is worth adding for up to 5 percent of your remaining FAB.

• Dolphins' Jaylen Wright: Active versus Bills

  7D ago • By RotoWire

  Wright is active for Thursday night's game against the Bills, Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.com reports. Wright was a healthy scratch Week 1, but he'll enter Miami's backfield mix Thursday with Raheem Mostert (chest) inactive. Meanwhile, De'Von Achane (ankle), who had been listed as questionable, is active and figures to see his share of touches in the absence of any setbacks, with Jeff Wilson also a candidate to see increased work versus Buffalo. With that in mind, it remains to be seen how many touches Wright will handle in his NFL regular-season debut, but the speedy fourth-round rookie does possess intriguing playmaking upside in Miami's offense.

• Dolphins' Jaylen Wright: Likely to make NFL debut Thursday

  8D ago • By RotoWire

  Wright, who was a healthy inactive Week 1, seems likely to suit up for Thursday's matchup with the Bills due to Raheem Mostert (chest) being ruled out and De'Von Achane (ankle) being a game-time decision, Chris Brown of the Bills Radio Network reports. Wright, a rookie fourth-round pick, boasts explosiveness but not experience over 28-year-old veteran Jeff Wilson, but both players will stand to see expanded opportunities Thursday with Mostert ruled out. Depending on Achane's status for Week 2, it could even fall to Wright and Wilson to handle the entirety of Miami's backfield workload, in which case the team might have no choice other than to ride the hot hand. Wright impressed in the preseason and boasts 4.38-second 40-yard dash speed, making him a big-play candidate even on limited touches.

• Dolphins' Jaylen Wright: Week 2 Waiver Priority List

  9D ago • By Jamey Eisenberg

  Jeff Wilson (1 percent rostered) might benefit the most if one or both of De'Von Achane (ankle) or Raheem Mostert (chest) are out for Thursday's game against Buffalo since he played in Week 1, while Wright was a healthy scratch. But I would hope that if the Dolphins need running back help we'll see Wright in an expanded role, and he has more upside than Wilson. I'd add Wright for 10-15 percent of your remaining FAB, and Wilson is worth adding for 5-10 percent of your remaining FAB. Just stay tuned to Tuesday's injury report to see the practice status for Achane and Mostert heading into Thursday's game.

• Dolphins' Jaylen Wright: Won't suit up Week 1

  11D ago • By RotoWire

  Wright (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Jaguars. Though the Dolphins invested a fourth-round pick into him during April's draft and he impressed out of the backfield in Miami's preseason finale, Wright will have to wait at least another week to make his NFL debut. With starter Raheem Mostert and change-of-pace dynamo De'Von Achane both entering the season healthy, the Dolphins won't have much of a role on offense available for Wright. The Tennessee product also didn't lock down a special-teams role coming out of the preseason, so Jeff Wilson will dress ahead of Wright as the Dolphins' No. 3 back.
