The Miami Dolphins have made a big move ahead of OTAs.

Miami will have a new-look offense this season with Malik Willis under center, but star running back De’Von Achane will be a focus of the offense again.

On Wednesday, NFL insider Jordan Schultz reported that the Dolphins and Achane have agreed to a contract extension.

“The Dolphins and Pro Bowl RB De'Von Achane have agreed to a 4-year extension worth $68M, making him the NFL’s 3rd-highest-paid RB at $17M per year with $32M guaranteed, per multiple sources. The APY and guarantees are the most ever for RBs coming off rookie contracts,” Schultz wrote on X.

Achane has become one of the best running backs in the NFL, and the Dolphins opted to extend him to keep him a part of their offense.

Miami selected Achane in the third round of the 2023 NFL Draft out of Texas A&M, and he was named to his first Pro Bowl last season. Last season, he rushed for 1,350 yards on 238 carries and eight touchdowns, while adding 488 receiving yards and four touchdowns.
