Dolphins' Jaylen Wright: Uninspiring rookie season
Wright rushed six times for minus-four yards during Sunday's 32-20 loss to the Jets.
Wright saw his highest touch total since Week 12 during Miami's season finale, but the rookie fourth-round pick did little with his opportunities. Across 15 appearances in 2024, Wright rushed 68 times for 249 yards without a single touchdown and secured three of six targets for eight yards. The Tennessee product was touted as a big-play threat after he submitted a 4.38-second 40-yard dash time at the NFL Scouting Combine, but he logged only one run of 20-plus yards as a rookie. Even if the Dolphins opt to move on from veterans Raheem Mostert and Jeff Wilson this offseason, Wright will need to improve heading into Year 2 to secure a notable role behind De'Von Achane.

Dolphins' Jaylen Wright: Uninvolved versus Cleveland
Wright did not log a carry or target during Sunday's 20-3 win over the Browns.
Wright didn't go without an offensive snap versus Cleveland as he had in Week 16 against San Francisco, but he was uninvolved in Miami's gameplan. The rookie fourth-round pick looks set to close out the regular season as an afterthought behind all of De'Von Achane, Raheem Mostert and Jeff Wilson at home against the Jets in Week 18.

Dolphins' Jaylen Wright: Works as No. 4 option Week 16
Wright did not record a carry or target during Sunday's 29-17 win over the 49ers.
Wright appears to have fallen to fourth on Miami's backfield depth chart, as veteran Jeff Wilson worked in behind starter De'Von Achane and backup Raheem Mostert. The rookie fourth-round pick has rushed just three times for 10 yards while securing two of three targets for six yards across his past four appearances. He'll compete for more depth opportunities on the road against Cleveland in Week 17.

Dolphins' Jaylen Wright: Falls back to No. 3 on depth chart
Wright rushed once for three yards during Miami's 20-12 loss to the Texans on Sunday.
Wright fell down to third on the depth chart behind De'Von Achane and Raheem Mostert, following the veteran running back's return from injury. Achane and Mostert combined for 18 carries versus Houston, in addition to notable work in the receiving game, while Wright's opportunities were limited to a single carry. The rookie figures to lock down a similar depth role against the 49ers in Week 16.

Dolphins' Jaylen Wright: Does little in backup role
Wright rushed twice for seven yards during Sunday's 32-26 overtime win over the Jets. He also secured two of three targets for six yards.
Wright handled the No. 2 backfield role for Miami with Raheem Mostert (hip) inactive Week 14, and he saw a few extra snaps in the red zone during the first quarter with De'Von Achane briefly being checked for an injury on the sideline. New York's defense effectively contained the Dolphins' running game, as while Achane was successful through the air (six catches for 45 yards), he piled up just 24 yards and one score on 14 carries. Wright, however, wasn't exactly impressive enough to push for increased opportunities, and Mostert may be back in action Week 15 on the road at Houston.

Dolphins' Jaylen Wright: Invisible in Thursday's loss
Wright did not log a single carry or target during Thursday's 30-17 loss to the Packers.
Wright had, in recent weeks, appeared to usurp the No. 2 backfield role from Raheem Mostert, but the Dolphins opted to trust the veteran running back over the rookie fourth-round pick during Thursday's cold weather tilt. The No. 2 role could be up for grabs once again heading into a Week 14 home game against the Jets, but even if fantasy managers had clarity on whether Wright or Mostert would hold a monopoly on those reps, De'Von Achane remains the only reliable fantasy option in Miami's backfield.

Dolphins' Jaylen Wright: Handles No. 2 role in Week 12 win
Wright had seven carries for 28 yards during Sunday's 34-15 win over the Patriots. He failed to secure his only target.
Wright seems to have secured the No. 2 role in Miami's backfield behind De'Von Achane, who rushed 10 times for 32 yards but scored twice through the air while securing three of four targets for 24 yards. Veteran Raheem Mostert, meanwhile, had just two carries for five yards. Wright has been impressive in limited opportunities, but Achane's extreme efficiency in scoring situations means the Dolphins' remaining backfield opportunities aren't especially high-value for fantasy purposes. Wright will look to continue building momentum Thursday versus the Packers.

Dolphins' Jaylen Wright: Six touches in Week 11
Wright rushed five times for four yards and caught his lone target for two yards in Sunday's 34-19 win over the Raiders.
Wright handled just five carries for the second-straight week, however, his one reception was his first of the season. The rookie running back has continued to disappoint on the ground. Since the Dolphins' Week 6 bye, Wright has recorded just 23 carries for 76 yards. Meanwhile, De'Von Achane has impressed in his starting role as Miami's most efficient back on the ground and in the passing game. Wright's limited opportunities make him very difficult to trust for fantasy purposes, and he likely would need injuries ahead of him on the running back depth chart to gain more relevance for fantasy. The Dolphins will host the Patriots in Week 12.

Dolphins' Jaylen Wright: Another inefficient showing
Wright rushed five times for three yards during Monday's 23-15 win over the Rams.
Wright has now totaled just 21 yards on 11 carries (1.9 YPC) in his last two appearances, a disappointing development after he averaged 5.3 YPC in his first six career appearances. He did, however, work as the No. 2 backfield option behind De'Von Achane versus Los Angeles, while veteran Raheem Mostert was held without a rushing attempt but secured two of three targets. Achane remains the Dolphins' clear backfield leader, with Wright and Mostert splitting the leftover duties. Wright will try to do more with his opportunities in Week 11 versus the Raiders.

Dolphins' Jaylen Wright: Inefficient in loss to Buffalo
Wright rushed six times for 18 yards during Sunday's 30-27 loss at Buffalo.
Wright continues to handle a depth role in the Dolphins backfield behind De'Von Achane and Raheem Mostert, both of whom were more effective versus the Bills. Achane has emerged as Miami's most dangerous offensive weapon in recent weeks, and he scored twice and surpassed 100 yards from scrimmage Sunday. Mostert, meanwhile, has been mostly useful in a No. 2 role, though he did lose a fumble Week 9. Wright will next work to impress in limited opportunities versus the Rams on Monday Night Football.
