The Miami Dolphins are gearing up for an exciting Thursday night matchup against the Buffalo Bills, but some injuries have taken center stage this week. Running back Raheem Mostert has officially been ruled out due to a chest injury he sustained early in last week’s game against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Head coach Mike McDaniel described Mostert’s injury as one that “not many people play with,” making it clear that it will require time to heal. Whether Mostert will miss more than just this game remains uncertain, but McDaniel has indicated he is leaning toward a shorter absence.

Adding to the uncertainty, De'Von Achane’s status for Thursday night remains up in the air. The dynamic rookie running back, who limped off the field in the Dolphins’ season opener with an ankle injury, has shown signs of improvement in practice. While Achane participated in Wednesday’s session and appeared to be moving well, McDaniel stated that the team will monitor his progress closely, leaving his availability as a game-time decision.


With both Mostert and Achane potentially sidelined, the spotlight now shifts to rookie running back Jaylen Wright, who could make his NFL debut. After being a healthy scratch in Week 1, Wright and Jeff Wilson Jr. are the only fully healthy running backs on the active roster. Wright, known for his speed and agility, has a golden opportunity to showcase his skills and provide a much-needed boost to the Dolphins' offense.

For Dolphins fans and the broader NFL community, this is a moment to watch. Wright, known for his speed and elusiveness, brings fresh energy to a Dolphins backfield that's faced some early-season adversity. His potential debut could provide the spark Miami needs against a tough Buffalo defense.


Head coach Mike McDaniel, while addressing the team’s injury concerns, mentioned that several players, including Wright, are being evaluated for their availability on game day. With Wright's debut on the horizon, fans at Hard Rock Stadium and across the nation are eager to see how the young talent performs under the bright lights of the NFL.


The excitement for Wright's possible NFL debut only adds to the already high anticipation surrounding this divisional showdown. As the Miami Dolphins continue to push for early-season dominance, Jaylen Wright has the chance to cement his place as a key contributor to the team’s offense.
