Miami coach Mike McDaniel provided a concise update on De'Von Achane and Zach Sieler after their soft-tissue, lower-body injuries kept them out of practice and the Saturday preseason game against Detroit. He stressed the issues aren’t severe and hinted Achane’s timeframe could look different in a regular-season setting, while not giving a hard timetable for either player. The Dolphins will reassess once back in Miami, with the Jaguars looming in the home opener slate.

For fantasy managers, the news is relief-driven: Achane’s early-season ceiling remains intact if he returns soon, and Sieler’s status isn’t described as long-term. The pair’s absence could influence Miami’s game plan early on, but McDaniel’s tone suggests a cautious restart rather than a shutdown. The upcoming week’s joint practices and the Jaguars game will likely set the pace for theirreturn.
