It appears as though the Miami Dolphins will have star RB De'Von Achane available on Thursday night when they face the Buffalo Bills at Hard Rock Stadium in a key early season AFC East battle.
Miami made just one practice squad elevation on Thursday afternoon, bringing up Robbie Chosen from the practice squad.
Now, Miami isn't exactly busting at the seams with healthy wide receivers, so Chosen's elevation isn't out of left field by any means.
However, it's what they didn't do that's telling. Miami has second year running back Deneric Prince on their practice squad. They surely would like to have three running backs active for the game. If Achane truly was in danger of not being able to play, then that would have been an almost necessary move to prepare for his absence.
Instead, Prince's number wasn't called on Saturday afternoon, meaning it's looking more likely that Achane will be able to go on Thursday night. It appears basically a given at this point that, with Raheem Mostert already ruled out, rookie Jaylen Wright will be active and should make his NFL debut against the Bills as well.
Miami and Buffalo kick off at 8:15 pm ET from Hard Rock Stadium in Miami Gardens, FL, with the game being broadcast on Amazon Prime Video.
