The Miami Dolphins have signed star running back De’Von Achane to a four-year contract extension worth up to $68 million, keeping him with the team through 2030. The deal includes $32 million guaranteed and ranks Achane third among NFL running backs in annual salary.
New Dolphins general manager Jon-Eric Sullivan said he was set on keeping star running back De’Von Achane in Miami, and he delivered.
The Dolphins and Achane agreed to a four-year contract extension Wednesday evening that keeps him signed to the team through 2030, according to a league source. The deal is reportedly worth a base of $64 million and can reach $68 million with incentives, with $32 million guaranteed.
On a per-year basis, that puts Achane third among NFL running backs, behind Philadelphia’s Saquon Barkley and San Francisco’s Christian McCaffrey.
The deal gets done before Miami begins voluntary organized team activities Monday. Achane has not been present though the first two phases of the Dolphins’ voluntary offseason workout program, as he and his agency negotiated the extension.
It also comes within the week that the New York Jets secured their running back, Breece Hall, to a three-year $45.5 million deal.
Achane was the Dolphins’ lone Pro Bowl player in 2025, rushing for 1,350 yards, which is third-most in Dolphins history behind Ricky Williams’ 2002 and 2003 seasons.
In three seasons in Miami since he was drafted in the third round in 2023 out of Texas A&M, Achane, also a valued pass-catcher, has accumulated 3,057 rushing yards, 172 receptions, 1,277 receiving yards and 35 total touchdowns.
Sullivan, who inherits Achane from the previous regime of Chris Grier and coach Mike McDaniel, has repeatedly said he views the speedster as a building block for the franchise.
Still on the docket for Sullivan and the Dolphins this offseason are extension talks with linebacker and center .
De’Von Achane's contract extension with the Dolphins is worth a base of $64 million, which can reach $68 million with incentives.
De’Von Achane's contract extension with the Dolphins is for four years, keeping him with the team through 2030.
De’Von Achane ranks third among NFL running backs in annual salary, behind Saquon Barkley and Christian McCaffrey.
