Washington Commanders running back Austin Ekeler suffered a torn Achilles during Thursday night's loss to the Green Bay Packers. Ekeler injured his ankle on the game's final drive while stepping back awkwardly. The lead back for Washington through the first two weeks, Ekeler totaled 14 carries for 43 yards and added five receptions for 38 yards. With 2024 starter Brian Robinson Jr. already traded, rookie Jacory Croskey-Merritt will now step into the starting role. Ekeler's contract expires after this season, making the injury an even bigger blow for the former star running back.

Miami Dolphins running back De'Von Achane carried the ball 11 times for just 30 rushing yards during Sunday's Week 2 loss against the New England Patriots. However, he also caught eight of 10 targets for an additional 92 receiving yards and one receiving touchdown. All in all, while the speedy running back wasn't able to get much going on the ground, he made a huge impact through the air and gave his fantasy managers plenty of reasons to celebrate. He has now scored at least 16.5 fantasy points (PPR) in each of his two games this year, putting him in the low-end RB1 conversation for Week 3 against the Buffalo Bills.
Still trying to decide between Ekeler and Achane? Check on the latest news to make sure both players are active and healthy. Our PPR projections show that Austin Ekeler is projected to score 7.7 points this week while De'Von Achane is projected to score 19.7 points.
