The Miami Dolphins<\/a>\u2018 roster has been turned upside down in just about every way imaginable this offseason. <\/p>\n

Quarterbacks, wide receivers, tight ends, the offensive line, linebackers, and the secondary have all seen major change. About the only two spots that haven\u2019t seen a major swap in or out? Running back and defensive tackle. The defensive tackle group is understandable, given the presence of veteran Zach Sieler and three second-year players drafted in 2025. But running back? The Dolphins keep poking around. And it\u2019s worth watching. <\/p>\n

The Miami Dolphins\u2019 continued interest in running backs is worth monitoring<\/p>\n

\"\"Jan 5, 2025; East Rutherford, New Jersey, USA; Miami Dolphins running back Jaylen Wright (25).<\/p>\n

The big move thus far this offseason at running back has been, of course, the long-term extension for De\u2019Von Achane. His four-year, $64 million deal with the team will keep him as a centerpiece of the offense for years to come. But behind him is still the same duo of young runners from last year: Ollie Gordon II and Jaylen Wright. <\/p>\n

The Dolphins tried to add competition when the forked over a handsome sum of guaranteed money (six figures) to undrafted rookie RB Le\u2019Veon Moss after the 2026 NFL Draft. He retired days after rookie minicamp. Miami\u2019s response? The team signed Carlos Henderson Jr. in free agency and have worked out veteran running back Zamir White<\/a>. <\/p>\n

Maybe the Miami Dolphins still intend on running it back with last year\u2019s trio of backs. But, at a minimum, the team appears dead set on making sure no one in that room (aside of Achane) feels comfortable. The prodding continues to find a legitimate threat to the roster. Is it a precursor of Miami anticipating a possible trade? Just trying to keep the fire lit under a group that has a lot of young players? We won\u2019t know until we know. But I, for one, am watching. <\/p>\n
