Jaylen Wright Expected To Have A Role

Miami Dolphins running backs Raheem Mostert and De'Von Achane are listed as co-starters on the team's latest preseason depth chart, but rookie Jaylen Wright's strong performance in training camp and in the preseason opener should give him a role in 2024. Wright led all players with 55 yards and a touchdown on 10 carries in his NFL debut against the Atlanta Falcons, and his style fits perfectly in head coach Mike McDaniel's outside-zone running scheme. Pro Football Network's Adam Beasley says to expect Wright to see significant action as a rookie. Per TruMedia, the Dolphins led the league in carries (240), rushing yards (1,213), touchdowns (12) and rushing first downs (62) out of 21 personnel in 2023. The 21-year-old fourth-rounder appears to have a leg up on Jeff Wilson Jr. for the RB3 role in an explosive Miami offense.
