Dolphins running back De’Von Achane is expected to miss multiple weeks with a knee injury and is a candidate for injured reserve, sources told ESPN’s Adam Schefter on Tuesday.
Coach Mike McDaniel told reporters Monday that Achane was being further evaluated for a knee injury he sustained in Sunday’s 31-16 win over the New York Giants, but declined to comment on the severity of the injury or what specific testing was being done.
“It’s just something we’re treating that we’ll get more information on,” McDaniel said. “He was in and out of the game, a standard rotation. … He thought he might have something, but he’s such a tough kid. It was kind of tough to read, so we needed to evaluate more, and that’s what we’re doing today.”
