Wilson rushed twice for minus-4 yards during Sunday's 32-20 loss to the Jets. Wilson handled a depth role early in the year and down the stretch for Miami, though he was a healthy scratch for much of the middle of the season. Across nine regular-season appearances, the veteran running back tallied 16 carries for 57 yards and secured all three of his targets for 19 yards. The 29-year-old is slated to become an unrestricted free agent this offseason.

Wilson rushed twice for minus-4 yards during Sunday's 32-20 loss to the Jets. Wilson handled a depth role early in the year and down the stretch for Miami, though he was a healthy scratch for much of the middle of the season. Across nine regular-season appearances, the veteran running back tallied 16 carries for 57 yards and secured all three of his targets for 19 yards. The 29-year-old is slated to become an unrestricted free agent this offseason.
Wilson rushed three times for five yards during Sunday's 20-3 win over the Browns. Wilson again worked as the third backfield option for Miami behind De'Von Achane and Raheem Mostert, but none of the Dolphins' running backs were able to get much going on the ground versus Cleveland. The veteran will continue working ahead of Jaylen Wright during Week 18's regular-season finale against the Jets, though his role isn't one that carries notable fantasy value.
Wilson rushed twice for 12 yards during Sunday's 29-17 win over San Francisco. Wilson worked over Jaylen Wright as the No. 3 back behind starter De'Von Achane and backup Raheem Mostert during Sunday's win over the 49ers, after having been inactive for seven straight games from Week 5 to Week 12. It's unclear whether Wilson has officially surpassed Wright on the depth chart, or if the Dolphins simply opted to involve him more in the game plan due to the Week 16 matchup. Wilson's next chance to compete for depth snaps will come Week 17 versus Cleveland on the road.
Wilson (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Texans. After he was inactive for a stretch of seven straight games from Weeks 5 through 12, Wilson had suited up for both of Miami's last two contests. He played just five snaps on offense between those two games, carrying one time for four yards and gaining seven yards on his lone reception. With Raheem Mostert (hip) back in action this Sunday after a one-game absence, Wilson will return to the inactive list while the Dolphins opt to have only three running backs dress for the Week 15 game.
Wilson (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against Las Vegas. The Dolphins will go with a three-man backfield of De'Von Achane, Raheem Mostert and Jaylen Wright for Sunday's contest. Wilson hasn't played since Week 4 against the Titans, and he will likely be a healthy scratch moving forward unless any of the other three running backs on the active roster are sidelined.
Wilson (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Cardinals. Wilson will be a healthy scratch for a third straight game as the Dolphins go with a three-man backfield comprising De'Von Achane, Raheem Mostert and Jaylen Wright. Wilson last appeared in Week 4 against the Titans, but he played just two offensive snaps in that game and didn't record a stat.
Wilson (coach's decision) is inactive Sunday against the Colts. With De'Von Achane, Raheem Mostert and Jaylen Wright all available Sunday, Wilson remains the odd man out in Miami's backfield after also having been a healthy scratch in Week 5.
Wilson (coach's decision) is listed as inactive Sunday in New England. With Raheem Mostert (chest) available for the first time since Week 1, Wilson will don street clothes while De'Von Achane, Mostert and rookie fourth-rounder Jaylen Wright man the Dolphins backfield Week 5. Miami has a Week 6 bye, so it remains to be seen if this will be Wilson's reality moving forward.
Wilson (knee) was a full participant in Thursday's practice, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports. Wilson was limited to just two total snaps in Monday's 31-12 loss to the Titans after hurting his knee in pregame warmups, but his ability to put in a limited practice Wednesday followed by a full session Thursday clears up any concern about his availability heading into Sunday's game at New England. De'Von Achane remains the top option in the Miami backfield, and Wilson could soon see his modest backup role disappear if Raheem Mostert (chest) is able to put an end to his three-game absence this weekend.
