De'Von Achane Defends Teammates, Looks To Improve In 2025

Monday, February 3, 2:51 PM

Miami Dolphins running back De'Von Achane defended his teammates during last Friday's appearance on the 'Up and Adams Show' regarding wide receiver Tyreek Hill's most recent comments about the team. Hill has rocked the boat a few times this offseason and recently reportedly stated Miami needed to add some "dogs" to the roster. Achane, however, disagreed and was a bit more optimistic. "We got dogs," said the 23-year-old. "We just need more people to bring it out, you know what I'm saying?" He'd also go on to say that he left some big runs on the table last season and appears focused on eclipsing the 1,000-yard mark in 2025 after noting he felt like he could have in 2024. It was a disappointing year for Miami, and the former third-round pick remarked that he was even more frustrated that the season had ended when the offense finally began to gel. Whether they will succeed next season remains to be seen, but Achane will surely be one of the first few names off the board in 2025 fantasy drafts.

Bucky Irving Remains Primary Backfield Option In Season-Ending Loss

Monday, January 13, 12:53 AM

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Bucky Irving rushed for 77 yards on 17 carries during Sunday's playoff loss to the Washington Commanders. He also caught two passes for an additional six yards through the air. In the loss, Irving averaged his lowest yards per carry since Week 9 (excluding his injury-shortened Week 14), which is not an indictment on his performance but rather a testament to just how well he's been running the football lately. He carved out the lead-back role once again on Sunday, registering 17 carries to Rachaad White's one. White has essentially been delegated to pass-catching situations, and even then, he continues to lose opportunities to Irving. It has been fascinating to watch this backfield dynamic develop throughout the season, with White slipping way down from the RB1 tier in fantasy football while Irving becomes one of the top running backs in dynasty fantasy football (and a mid-range RB1 in redraft leagues, too). Barring an unexpected change or addition within the Buccaneers' backfield, Irving should remain their primary ball carrier entering 2025.
