Who Should I Start? De'Von Achane or Kaleb Johnson

Saturday, December 13, 11:24 AM

Barring a setback, Miami Dolphins running back De'Von Achane (ribs) is expected to play Monday night against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Offensive coordinator Frank Smith said Friday that he expects the superstar running back to be ready for Monday night after picking up a rib injury in last week's win over the New York Jets. The team limited his reps in practice, but he shouldn't have any limitations in Week 15. The 24-year-old running back has been on a tear lately, recording 72 carries for 520 rushing yards and four touchdowns while adding 12 receptions for 109 yards on 13 targets over the last four games. Achane remains an elite fantasy option for Week 15's matchup against the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Pittsburgh Steelers running back Kaleb Johnson won't be on the fantasy radar for this weekend's clash with the visiting Buffalo Bills. The former third-round pick has had a quiet rookie season, amassing 58 yards on 22 carries across seven appearances. At the beginning of the campaign, Johnson appeared to be on his way to playing a sizable snap share in a backfield ripe for the taking. That didn't come to fruition, though, as teammates Jaylen Warren and Kenneth Gainwell have formed a formidable duo for the Steelers. Furthermore, opportunities in Pittsburgh are hard to come by, considering the team boasts the third-slowest pace of play (56.7 plays per game). As it stands, the University of Iowa alum is a talented athlete, but his path to playing time -- at least in 2025 -- is less clear than we'd like for fantasy. Either way, he's still a nice stash in dynasty leagues.
