De'Von Achane shows up for Dolphins' voluntary workouts
Key Points:
- Dolphins running back De’Von Achane has returned to the team’s offseason workouts after missing the first week, signaling a potential willingness to negotiate a new contract.
- Achane’s attendance is seen as a "sign of good faith" amid ongoing contract discussions between him and the Dolphins.
- Despite his return, Achane remains without financial security beyond the 2026 season, which is the final year of his rookie contract.
- The Dolphins have stated Achane is not currently available for trade, but this stance reflects a lack of acceptable offers rather than untouchable status.
- Achane’s strong early career performance justifies his pursuit of a contract increase, especially given the typically shorter career span of running backs in the NFL.
