Dolphins' Jaylen Wright: Scores late TD in loss
Jaylen Wright rushed nine times for 35 yards and a touchdown and brought in one of two targets for 18 yards in the Miami Dolphins' 45-21 loss to the Bengals on Sunday.Wright saw complementary snaps behind De'Von Achane and recorded his second rushing touchdown of the season on a three-yard run with just under four minutes remaining. Despite the fact he tied his second-highest carry total of the season versus Cincinnati, Wright is likely to slot into a low-volume role in a Week 17 home matchup against the Buccaneers next Sunday unless Achane is injured or there's another blowout scenario at play.

Dolphins' Jaylen Wright: Limited to two touches Monday
Jaylen Wright rushed once for two yards and brought in his only target for nine yards in the Miami Dolphins' 28-15 loss to the Steelers on Monday night.One game after logging a career-high 24 carries against the Jets due to De'Von Achane's early exit with a rib injury, Wright reverted to a bit role Monday night despite Ollie Gordon exiting due to an ankle injury in the second quarter. Wright did record only the second catch of his career, but with Achane healthy and capable of playing all three downs, Wright looks likely to remain minimally involved over the final three games of the season, even if Gordon is sidelined for any period of time.

Dolphins' Jaylen Wright: Tops 100 yards as Achane gets hurt
Jaylen Wright rushed 24 times for 107 yards and a touchdown but didn't catch any of his three targets in Sunday's 34-10 win over the Jets.Wright's two-yard touchdown run in the first quarter came prior to De'Von Achane's second-quarter departure from the game due to a rib injury. Ollie Gordon added a touchdown run in the second half but posted only 17 rushing yards on his five carries. If Achane doesn't return in Week 15 against the Steelers, Wright could work as the lead back ahead of Gordon in a Miami Dolphins offense that relies heavily on its running backs.

Dolphins' Jaylen Wright: Logs one carry in OT win
Jaylen Wright rushed once for four yards during Miami's 16-13 overtime win over the Commanders in Madrid on Sunday.Wright worked behind standout De'Von Achane (172 yards from scrimmage) as well as Ollie Gordon (nine carries for 45 yards and one score) again Sunday. He had worked as the No. 2 back behind Achane in Week 10, but that opportunity came due to Gordon managing an ankle injury, from which he's now fully recovered. The Miami Dolphins will go on bye Week 12, so Wright's next chance to handle reserve duties will come Sunday, Nov. 30 versus the Saints in Week 13.

Dolphins' Jaylen Wright: Works as No. 2 back in upset win
Jaylen Wright carried the ball five times for 17 yards during Miami's 30-13 win over the Bills on Sunday.Wright operated as the No. 2 option behind De'Von Achane in Week 10, as Ollie Gordon, who entered the contest questionable due to an ankle issue, rushed just once for minus-3 yards. If Gordon is fully healthy to face the Commanders overseas in Madrid in Week 11, he figures to reclaim the top backup role behind Achane, but it was nonetheless encouraging to see Wright active for the third time in the last four weeks, after he had been a healthy scratch to begin the season. Of course, Achane -- who racked up 225 yards from scrimmage and two scores on 28 touches -- remains the sole dominant fantasy contributor in the Miami Dolphins' backfield.

Dolphins' Jaylen Wright: Suiting up for Week 10
Jaylen Wright is active for Sunday's game against the Bills, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.Wright has been a healthy scratch for most of the season, but he'll suit up Sunday -- marking his third time garnering active status on the campaign. The move likely comes as insurance for Ollie Gordon, who is active Sunday but has been limited in practice throughout the week by an ankle injury. Wright isn't likely to see much opportunity so long as both De'Von Achane and Gordon remain healthy.

Dolphins' Jaylen Wright: Gets involved in win over Falcons
Jaylen Wright carried the ball nine times for 28 yards during Miami's 34-10 win over Atlanta. He also secured his only target for a gain of zero yards.Wright got an opportunity to help close out the Miami Dolphins' upset Week 8 win once the game was well out of hand, but he remained convincingly behind both De'Von Achane and Ollie Gordon. The second-year pro will work to continue demonstrating some amount of consistency in the No. 3 role as Miami prepares for a matchup against Baltimore at home on Thursday Night Football in Week 9.

Dolphins' Jaylen Wright: Uninvolved in Week 7 loss
Jaylen Wright did not log a carry or target during Miami's 31-6 loss to the Browns on Sunday.Wright was active versus Cleveland after having been a healthy scratch the prior two games, but he played just nine offensive snaps and was statistically invisible while Ollie Gordon (five carries for 22 yards) operated as the No. 2 back behind starter De'Von Achane (13 carries for 82 yards). Next on deck for the Miami Dolphins is a Week 8 road matchup against the Falcons, wherein Wright will work to compete for more opportunities alongside Gordon.
