Mostert carried the ball three times for minus-2 yards in Sunday's 34-19 win over the Raiders. Mostert was forced out of the game Sunday with a hip injury, but was able to make an eventual return. The veteran's 14 percent snap share and minus-2 rushing yards were both season lows for the running back. After a stellar 2023 campaign, Mostert's 2024 season has been a major disappointment along with the entire Miami offense. With De'Von Achane emerging as the clear lead back and Jaylen Wright showing proving to be solid young player, it's evident that the 32-year-old Mostert's best days are behind him. Nonetheless, tenth-year running back will look to get more involved in a Week 12 matchup with the Patriots.

Mostert carried the ball three times for minus-2 yards in Sunday's 34-19 win over the Raiders. Mostert was forced out of the game Sunday with a hip injury, but was able to make an eventual return. The veteran's 14 percent snap share and minus-2 rushing yards were both season lows for the running back. After a stellar 2023 campaign, Mostert's 2024 season has been a major disappointment along with the entire Miami offense. With De'Von Achane emerging as the clear lead back and Jaylen Wright showing proving to be solid young player, it's evident that the 32-year-old Mostert's best days are behind him. Nonetheless, tenth-year running back will look to get more involved in a Week 12 matchup with the Patriots.
Mostert (hip) has returned to Sunday's game against the Raiders, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports. Mostert had exited the game with a hip issue, but he's back in the Dolphins' Week 11 backfield mix Sunday, along with De'Von Achane and Jaylen Wright.
Mostert was forced out of Sunday's game against the Raiders with a hip injury. Prior to his exit from the contest, Mostert carried once for zero yards. While he's sidelined, De'Von Achane and Jaylen Wright are available to handle Miami's running back duties versus Las Vegas.
Mostert secured two of three targets for 34 yards during Miami's 23-15 win over the Rams on Monday. Mostert did not log a single carry during Monday night's win, while De'Von Achane rushed 12 times for 37 yards and Jaylen Wright logged five carries for three yards. Achane was also more involved than Mostert in the receiving game, securing all five of his targets for 15 yards. All three of Tua Tagovailao's targets to Mostert came on third down, and the veteran running back's 15 percent share of offensive snaps marked a season-low total. Mostert had logged at least 10 carries in three of four appearances leading up to Monday's win, but his role on the ground now has to be considered uncertain heading into a Week 11 home game against the Raiders.
Mostert rushed 10 times for 56 yards, caught both of his targets for 32 yards and lost a fumble in Sunday's 30-27 loss to the Bills. Mostert touched the ball on Miami's first three plays of the second half, and while he compiled 30 scrimmage yards during that stretch, it ended on a sour note when he lost a fumble. He finished with 12 touches compared to 20 for De'Von Achane, who compiled 121 scrimmage yards and two touchdowns. Mostert had a two-touchdown performance of his own in Week 8 against Arizona, but Achane has the higher floor in Miami's productive backfield heading into Week 10 against the Rams.
Mostert rushed nine times for 19 yards and two touchdowns while catching one of two targets for 11 yards in Sunday's 28-27 loss to the Cardinals. Mostert helped the Dolphins welcome back starting quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) by capping Miami's opening drive with a one-yard touchdown run. The veteran running back added a six-yard rushing score in the fourth quarter, but he was otherwise outperformed on the ground by De'Von Achane, who had 10 carries for 97 rushing yards and a receiving touchdown. Achane is usually the favorite to lead Miami's backfield in touches and yards, but Mostert's success by the goal line is nothing new, as he produced a league-best 18 rushing touchdowns in 2023. Both Dolphins running backs will be in fantasy starter consideration in Week 9 against a Bills defense that has been better against the pass than the run.
Mostert carried the ball 11 times for 50 yards in Sunday's 16-10 loss to the Colts. De'Von Achane led the Miami backfield with 15 totes for 77 yards, but Mostert found some success as well, even with the Colts' defense having little to worry about through the air. The Dolphins could lean even more heavily on their backfield in Week 8 against the Cardinals -- Tyler Huntley (shoulder) left Sunday's game in the third quarter, joining Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) and Skylar Thompson (ribs) on the sideline. If none of those QBs are ready to go next week, 30-year-old career backup Tim Boyle would get the start.
Mostert rushed 19 times for 80 yards and brought in both targets for 18 yards in the Dolphins' 15-10 win over the Patriots on Sunday. Mostert, making his return from a three-game absence due to a chest injury, wasn't expected to walk back into a full workload, but De'Von Achane's first-half exit due to a concussion scuttled those plans. The veteran responded in impressive fashion, consistently grinding out solid gains while splitting work with rookie Jaylen Wright, who stood out with a 13-86 line on the ground. Achane should have plenty of time to clear concussion protocol during the Week 6 bye, but Mostert should have a complementary role at minimum in a Week 7 road battle against the Colts on Sunday, Oct. 20.
Mostert (chest) doesn't have a designation for Sunday's game in New England, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports. Mostert hasn't played since Week 1 due to a chest injury, which has sidelined him the last three contests. He was able to return to practice as of Sept. 18, but he also was listed as limited on every Dolphins injury report in the meantime until Friday, when he finally logged a full practice. Coach Mike McDaniel told Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald on Friday that the team is "going to modify how much he plays in general" if he's able to suit up Sunday. As a result, Mostert likely will be operating with a cap on his reps this weekend and perhaps until McDaniel feels he can handle a normal workload. Expect Mostert to play second fiddle to De'Vone Achane out of Miami's backfield for the time being.
