De'Von Achane injury

Miami Dolphins star running back De'Von Achane suffered a torn ACL in the Week 3 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs and will miss the rest of the 2026 season.

Injury details

Achane sustained the non-contact injury on a first-quarter run after planting his left leg to cut right, causing his leg to give out from underneath him.

Coach's assessment

Dolphins coach Jeff Hafley said the injury was serious but could not provide details until further testing confirmed the torn knee ligament.

“To be very honest with you, it does not sound very optimistic at this moment, but i can't give you any other details until i have them”

Achane's condition

Achane walked slowly to the sideline after being tackled awkwardly and later to the locker room without assistance.

Season impact

Achane had 34 carries for 117 yards and seven receptions for 49 yards through the air before his injury ended his 2026 campaign without a touchdown.

Team consequences

Dolphins lost to Chiefs by two touchdowns with only 119 total rushing yards as Ollie Gordon II stepped up to fill the running back role.
