Salvon Ahmed Fantasy

Miami Dolphins running back Salvon Ahmed (groin) is officially inactive for Week 3 versus the Denver Broncos. This comes as no surprise after the Dolphins listed him as doubtful heading into the weekend. Rookie De'Von Achane will operate as the No. 2 option behind Raheem Mostert but isn't a viable fantasy starter.

Miami Dolphins running back Salvon Ahmed (groin) has been listed as doubtful for Sunday's Week 3 game against the Denver Broncos. The fourth-year running back injured his groin during the Week 2 win over the New England Patriots and didn't log a practice this week. He has been serving as starting running back Raheem Mostert's backup so far this season but if he doesn't end up playing, which is highly likely, then that role would go to rookie De'Von Achane. Ahmed hasn't seen much action (six carries for 24 yards, three catches for 28 yards) while working as the backup but Achane, who is a more dynamic player, would likely see more volume in that role on Sunday.

Miami Dolphins running back Salvon Ahmed (groin) missed a second straight day of practice on Thursday. Ahmed is trending in the wrong direction to play in the Week 3 contest at home against the Denver Broncos after he suffered a groin injury in the Week 2 Sunday night win over the New England Patriots. Raheem Mostert ran for over 100 yards and two touchdowns and is the clear lead back in Miami, but if Ahmed misses this Sunday's game, rookie De'Von Achane would be in line for a bigger role as Mostert's primary backup. Jeff Wilson Jr. (abdomen) remains on Injured Reserve and will be forced to miss at least two more games. Ahmed has only six carries for 24 yards and three catches for 28 yards in two games so far in 2023.
