Dolphins Agree to Contract Extension with Star RB De’Von Achane
- On Wednesday, the Miami Dolphins signed running back De'Von Achane to a four-year, $68 million contract extension with $32 million guaranteed, keeping him through 2030.
- General Manager Jon-Eric Sullivan prioritized keeping Achane despite a team-wide rebuild that saw stars like Tua Tagovailoa and Jaylen Waddle depart. Sullivan had publicly stated the extension was a priority.
- At $17 million average annual value, Achane ranks third among NFL running backs, behind only Saquon Barkley and Christian McCaffrey. He earned his first Pro Bowl nod in 2025 after rushing for 1,350 yards.
- Miami's investment in Achane defies recent league trends where running backs are increasingly devalued. The organization views the former third-round pick as essential to their offensive future despite the rebuild.
- Locking Achane to a long-term deal positions him as the centerpiece of the Dolphins' new regime under General Manager Sullivan. Though not expected to compete this year, Miami clearly views the young star as a long-term anchor.
