De'Von Achane tells haters to 'keep the same energy' when Dolphins prove they aren't soft
De'Von Achane tells haters to 'keep the same energy' when Dolphins prove they aren't soft The Miami Dolphins have dealt with a "soft" label for much of the last three years and they haven't done much to dispel it. 'That's the thing with narratives," Dolphins coach Mike McDaniel told reporters shortly after his team lost 30-17 on a cold Thanksgiving night at Lambeau Field. "There's one way to change them and so my expectation would be: the naysayers, you prove them right, they'll be louder. That's part of the territory. You carry that until you do something about it, and unfortunately, we didn't." Proving those naysayers wrong is a focal point for the Dolphins heading into the 2025 season. And running back De'Von Achane is already challenging the haters. "I feel like we go out there and practice every day, and we are going to show when the season comes everybody who was saying those little remarks, just make sure they keep the same energy," Achane said. The effort to get tougher, bigger, and meaner in the offseason was especially evident in the 2025 NFL draft. Miami's first three draft picks weighed about 1,000 pounds collectively and first-rounder Kenneth Grant and second-rounder Jonah Savaiinaea will likely start right away on the defensive and offensive line, respectively. Coupled with free agency additions like offensive linemen James Daniels and Larry Borom, as well as blocking tight end Pharaoh Brown, the Dolphins are hopeful to see improvements in the trenches. After leading the NFL in yards per carry in 2023 with an average of 5.1, the Dolphins' plummeted to 28th in 2024 with 4.0 yards per rush attempt. With a retooled front and some more buy-in from players this offseason, Achane is eyeing big numbers in 2025. And he's ready to silence the doubters along the way.

Dolphins' De'Von Achane Reveals Goals for 2025 Season
The Miami Dolphins have some of the best skill position players in the NFL, including some of the fastest athletes in the league, such as wide receivers Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle. Running back De'Von Achane is no exception, running a 4.32-second 40-yard dash at the NFL Combine in 2023, which was the fastest of any player at his position in that draft class. Speed isn't the end-all be-all, though, and Achane knows that. Coming off his sophomore season in the NFL, which saw him rack up 907 rushing yards on 203 carries, the Texas A&M product knows he still has room for improvement. Advertisement Achane is a home-run hitter, able to break off long runs any chance he has the ball in his hands. However, he is also prone to negative plays, losing yardage on 24.1 percent of his carries in 2024. The only other running backs worse in the category were Minnesota Vikings running back Cam Akers and Cleveland Browns running back Nick Chubb. Miami Dolphins running back De'Von Achane (28) rushes with the ball against the Buffalo Bills during the second half at Hard Rock Vinlove-Imagn Images 'Me trying to make a big play instead of like, just doing the right thing,' Achane told the Palm Beach Post. 'Me watching film, I feel like I left a lot of plays (out there). I feel like I could have did more.' There were positives to Achane's 2024 season, he was available in all 17 games as opposed to his rookie season when he missed six due to a knee injury. Advertisement "Staying healthy was the main just staying in the training room, just coming in on off days, making sure even if I'm not hurt, just being there. Seventeen, that's a long time. And I learned that from my rookie year.' Achane will look to be the featured back for Miami in 2025, as his former running mate Raheem Mostert departed for the Las Vegas Raiders in free agency.

De'Von Achane disagrees with Tyreek Hill: 'We got dawgs'
Tyreek Hill says that the Miami Dolphins need to 'add some dawgs' to the roster after an 8-9 finish last season. Running back De'Von Achane has a different take, though. 'We got dawgs,' Achane told Kay Adams on Friday in an appearance on FanDuel's Up and Adams. 'We just need more people to bring it out. I wouldn't say we need more, as in like got to get other people. 'We know what we're capable of. If we're all on [the same page], I feel like we're a hard team to beat.' Do the @MiamiDolphins need to add more 'dawgs in this b—-?' De'Von Achane on what needs to happen in 2025 🔊 @ffvmousvon_ @heykayadams | #GoFins — Up & Adams (@UpAndAdamsShow) January 31, 2025 Achane, 23, was the Dolphins' most consistent playmaker on offense, finishing the 2024 season with 1,499 yards from scrimmage and 12 total touchdowns. While he told Adams that he felt he 'left some big runs on the table' in 2024, it was the Dolphins running out of time to climb back into the playoff mix that he described as frustrating. 'We knew as a team that we dug ourselves in this hole,' Achane said. 'It sucks that the season ended when we start getting it together. It'd helped if we figured it out earlier.' The Dolphins were 2-6 through the first nine weeks of the season before winning six of their last nine. While Miami was still alive in the postseason race heading into Week 18, the Denver Broncos secured the last spot in the playoffs and the Dolphins lost their season finale against the New York Jets.
