Jeff Wilson Jr. Likely To Be On Rep Count If He Plays

one year ago

The Miami Dolphins are still considering whether to activate running back Jeff Wilson Jr. (finger, ribs) from Injured Reserve, but if they do, head coach Mike McDaniel said Wilson will likely be on a repetition count of no more than 25 reps if he plays in Week 6 against the Carolina Panthers. The Dolphins rotate their running backs and trust them all. When they were all healthy in 2022, Raheem Mostert was the 1A and Wilson was the 1B. Rookie De'Von Achane (knee) burst onto the scene in recent weeks, but he's now on Injured Reserve and will be forced to miss the next four games. It gives Wilson a chance to come off IR himself and contribute right away, but it sounds as though Salvon Ahmed might be ahead of him this Sunday if Wilson is active.
