Jeff Wilson Jr. News
Miami Dolphins running back Jeff Wilson Jr. (finger, rib) was placed on the injured reserve on Thursday. The 27-year-old is dealing with multiple injuries that are going to force him to miss the first four weeks of the regular season. However, Wilson's agent expects Wilson to return ahead of the Week 5 matchup against the New York Giants. That is great news considering the team didn't offer much of a timetable for Wilson's return. The Dolphins might only be without Wilson for four games, which isn't too bad. In his absence, Raheem Mostert and rookie De'Von Achane (shoulder) are expected to have bigger roles in the offense.
Miami Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel said he wouldn't be surprised if running back Jeff Wilson Jr. (abdomen, finger) returned this year. "Was midsection injury compounded by some finger issues. We made the assessment he couldn't protect himself and couldn't be himself the way we know him to be. I wouldn't be surprised if he would make a return this season. We will let his body tell us," McDaniel said. The Dolphins placed Wilson on Injured Reserve, so he'll have to miss the first four games of the year, but McDaniel makes it sound like he could be out much longer. The 27-year-old's fantasy stock obviously takes a huge hit, while Raheem Mostert now becomes much more attractive, as does rookie De'Von Achane (shoulder).
The Miami Dolphins placed running back Jeff Wilson Jr. (undisclosed) on Injured Reserve in a surprising move on Thursday. The move means that Wilson will be ineligible to play in the first four games of the season. Rookie De'Von Achane (shoulder) and Salvon Ahmed (head) should now have elevated roles in Miami's backfield behind starter Raheem Mostert to begin the season, although it's unclear if they'll even be ready for Week 1 against the Los Angeles Chargers. Mostert's ADP will surely go up for fantasy drafts this weekend, but he looks like a pretty excellent value now for those who already drafted him. Meanwhile, the 27-year-old Wilson is going to go undrafted now in most 12-team leagues.
