One of the stars of the show was Miami RB De'Von Achane, who went for 92 total yards and a receiving TD on the day. Can he repeat in Week 9?
Below, we are focusing on De’Von Achane's stats, picks and projections on PrizePicks for Thursday Night Football against the Ravens. Use this analysis to make player picks and win real money if you're right.
De’Von Achane Stats, Pick for Thursday Night Football
Last season, Achane led all RBs in receiving yards, finishing with 592.
Halfway through the year, he’s currently third at 235 receiving yards, but he still has yet to have his bye week. 49ers RB Christian McCaffrey (559) and Falcons RB Bijan Robinson (413) have distanced themselves from the rest of the pack.
Achane sits just 44 yards ahead of the 10th-placed back, and five of the ones below him have played one fewer game or more, per StatMuse.
Below is a potential Achane Thursday Night Football projection to consider for Week 9.
Dolphins RB De’Von Achane Projection: 30.5 Receiving Yards
- The only time Achane eclipsed 30.5 receiving yards was in Week 2 against the Patriots (92). He averages 29.4 receiving yards per game, but if you take out the outlier against New England, his average is just 20.4.
- The Ravens' defense has held five teams’ leading receiving RBs to below 30.5 receiving yards this season in seven games played.
- In the first four weeks, Baltimore's defense allowed an average of 50.3 receiving yards per game to RBs. Over the past three weeks, they have improved significantly, holding the position to an average of just 21 yards.
- The Dolphins' offense struggles to maintain drives, averaging a measly 17 first downs per game, which ranks 29th in the league per Team Rankings.
