AI outlook

Clear workload centerpiece of a rebuilding Miami offense in 2026 after Tua/Hill/Waddle departures; fully cleared from offseason shoulder surgery with no camp restrictions. Efficiency environment under new OC Bobby Slowik is unverified, keeping confidence medium despite a high-confidence role.

Recent news
Achane suffers season-ending torn ACL vs. Chiefsnfl.com

Non-contact ACL tear in Wk3 loss to KC, placed on IR. Out for the season.

Strengths & concerns
Pros / cons +

Pros

  • Clear, uncontested RB1 role with no committee threat
  • Fully healthy, cleared for camp with no restrictions
  • Loss of Hill/Waddle/Tua likely increases his target/touch share
  • TD production in 2025 was workload-driven, not efficiency-driven, so it should be sticky

Cons

  • New OC Bobby Slowik has an uneven Houston track record and no verified 2026 pace/PROE data
  • Loss of McDaniels run-scheme design is a real risk to per-touch efficiency
  • O-line unsettled (rookie LG, banged-up RT in camp)
  • Rebuilding team context (4.5 win total) raises negative-game-script variance
