Dolphins RB split clouds Ollie Gordon II's fantasy value as Jaylen Wright returns
Miami Dolphins running back Jaylen Wright is expected to return in Week 4 after full participation in Thursday's practice, casting doubt on the fantasy value of teammate Ollie Gordon II, who was a top waiver-wire add. Gordon II took over as the lead back after De'Von Achane tore his ACL in Week 3, playing 61 of 73 snaps with 17 carries and a touchdown. However, Wright was the team's RB2 behind Achane, and ESPN's Jeremy Fowler expects a split backfield between Wright and Gordon II moving forward. The Dolphins face the Minnesota Vikings in Week 4, who allow the fourth-fewest rushing yards per game (85.7) and have not surrendered a rushing touchdown this season. Fantasy managers should avoid starting either back this week due to the uncertain workload and tough matchup.
