The Miami Dolphins entered their Week 18 matchup against the Buffalo Bills without the league’s leader in rushing touchdowns, as Raheem Mostert was ruled out due to an injury.
Fortunately, Miami has rookie running back De’Von Achane waiting in the wings.
On a second-and-9 play in the second quarter, Achane took a pitch to the right for a 25-yard touchdown, giving Miami a 7-0 lead over Buffalo.
No ankles are safe around Achane 🤧

Achane has been on fire already, as he’s totaled 46 yards on seven touches in less than a half. The Dolphins will need him to keep up that performance to earn a win this week.
