Dolphins React to De'Von Achane's NFL Top 100 Ranking
De'Von Achane landed the No. 26 spot on the 2026 NFL Top 100 rankings, as voted on by the league's active players.
Miami Dolphins running back De Von Achane secured the No. 26 spot in the 2026 NFL Top 100 rankings, as determined by his NFL counterparts. This achievement came after an impressive 2025 season where he amassed 1,350 rushing yards and eight touchdowns, along with 67 receiving yards and four touchdowns. As a versatile player, Achane contributed significantly as both a runner and a receiver.
Miami Dolphins management plans to rely more on Achane next season, following the departures of notable players such as Tua Tagovailoa, Tyreek Hill, and Jaylen Waddle. The team's new social media post celebrated Achane's recognition, highlighting his role as the standout player on a roster that includes quarterback Malik Willis and pass catchers Malik Washington, Jalen Tolbert, Tutu Atwell, and Greg Dulcich.
Achane expressed his comfort with his new leadership position at training camp, stating, "The leadership thing kind of fell into my lap but I'm getting better at it and it's something I'm getting comfortable with." As the Dolphins prepare to begin their 2026 campaign with a Week 1 game against the Las Vegas Raiders on September 13, Achane is poised to be the team's star and driving force.
