De'Von Achane in Line to See Even More Work in 2025

Thursday, May 22, 1:08 PM

NFL Network's Cameron Wolfe says that Miami Dolphins running back De'Von Achane could be in line for even more of a workhorse role on offense in 2025 after proving to be one of the most explosive playmakers at the position in his first two years in the league. Achane has an opportunity to be Miami's clear RB1 after veteran Raheem Mostert joined the Las Vegas Raiders in free agency this offseason. He's been clear about his goals moving forward, too, stating that he thinks he can be a 1,000-yard rusher and a 500-yard receiver. Achane was already a top-10 RBI in PPR scoring in 2024 with 907 rushing yards and six rushing touchdowns and 78 receptions, 592 receiving yards and six receiving TDs. There are questions about whether the 5-foot-9, 188-pounder can handle that big of a workload, but Miami's coaching staff isn't worried. Achane's fantasy arrow is pointing upward as a strong RB1.

Cedric Tillman News

Cedric Tillman Practicing on Saturday

Saturday, July 26, 1:18 PM

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Cedric Tillman (calf) is back at training camp practice on Saturday, according to The Athletic's Zac Jackson. Tillman left practice early on Friday with what appeared to be calf cramping, but he's back in action a day later and shouldn't have any concerns going forward. The 25-year-old former third-rounder (74th overall) in 2023 out of Tennessee came on strong midway through last season when Jameis Winston took over at quarterback, but a concussion cut his season short. Heading into his third year in the NFL, he should be a starter in three-wide sets for Cleveland next to Jerry Jeudy and Diontae Johnson. In his two seasons with the Browns, Tillman has caught 50 of 93 targets for 563 yards and three touchdowns in 25 games (nine starts). He has opportunity, but with either Joe Flacco or Kenny Pickett at QB, Tillman's fantasy upside will be limited.
