2025 Fantasy Outlook
Wright's rookie season was disappointing, but patience is warranted in light of his age (22 in April) and the fact that he was never a full-time player in college at Tennessee. The 2024 fourth-round pick still has plenty of potential, thanks to his 4.38 speed at 5-foot-11, 210. De'Von Achane is too light to do everything in the Miami backfield, and with Raheem Mostert no longer on the roster, Wright seemingly had a clear path to the No. 2 spot on the depth chart. Things didn't go well for him this summer, however, with Wright suffering a leg injury that's expected to keep him out for the start of the season. Rookie sixth-round pick Ollie Gordon stepped up in the meantime and could potentially become the long-term No. 2 back behind Achane if he handles the role well early on. Read Past Outlooks

Tops 100 yards as Achane gets hurt
Wright rushed 24 times for 107 yards and a touchdown but didn't catch any of his three targets in Sunday's 34-10 win over the Jets.
ANALYSIS
Wright's two-yard touchdown run in the first quarter came prior to De'Von Achane's second-quarter departure from the game due to a rib injury. Ollie Gordon added a touchdown run in the second half but posted only 17 rushing yards on his five carries. If Achane doesn't return in Week 15 against the Steelers, Wright could work as the lead back ahead of Gordon in a Dolphins offense that relies heavily on its running backs.

2024 Fantasy Outlook
Most draft analysts expected Wright to go sooner than the fourth round this spring, and the combination of a crowded Miami backfield and disappointing draft capital doesn't exactly hint at big-time production Year 1. On the other hand, Raheem Mostert has shown that a running back with Wright's approximate height/weight/speed dimensions can post big numbers in the Mike McDaniel offense. Wright ran a 4.38 40 at 5-11, 210, confirming that he has speed to turn the corner and split safeties in the NFL, after he frequently did so at Tennessee. He averaged 6.0 yards on 146 carries in 2022 and then 7.4 YPC across 137 carries his final season, providing first-rate efficiency on medium-sized workloads in a spread offense. Wright probably isn't much of a power runner and caught only 30 passes in three collegiate seasons, but if Mostert or De'Von Achane misses any time the rookie should offer timely firepower as a rushing specialist.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Could have expanded role in Week 15
Wright could take on a larger workload in Week 15 against the Steelers, as De'Von Achane exited the Week 14 win over the Jets due to a rib injury.
ANALYSIS
Wright excelled after Achane's exit, finishing the win over the Jets with 24 carries for 107 yards and a touchdown. Per David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel, head coach Mike McDaniel said after the game that Achane could have returned in an emergency, but that doesn't necessarily mean that Achance will be available to handle his usual heavy workload against the Steelers, which could open the door for Wright to take on more carries in a backfield that also includes Ollie Gordon.
