Raheem Mostert Comes Back To Earth In Loss

Raheem Mostert Comes Back To Earth In Loss

one year ago

Miami Dolphins running back Raheem Mostert handled seven rushing attempts for nine yards with a lost fumble and three receptions for an additional 36 yards in Sunday's 48-20 defeat to the Buffalo Bills. Mostert made a nifty 22-yard contested catch on a wheel route to invigorate a muted first half but coughed up the ball late in the second period. Week 4 was the first hiccup of the 31-year-old's campaign after setting the world on fire as fantasy's top scorer over its first three weeks. Though, Mostert was out-touched 11-10 by the burgeoning De'Von Achane on Sunday. Jeff Wilson Jr. (ribs) is eligible to return from injured reserve as early as Week 5, which could further complicate matters in Miami's backfield. For now, Mostert is a tentative RB2 starter for next Sunday versus a New York Giants defense that's been shredded on the ground through three games.
