Miami Dolphins running back Jaylen Wright may again be the primary backup in his team's backfield when they square off against the New England Patriots on Sunday. The rookie saw his highest snap share of the season in Miami's Week 4 31-12 loss to the Tennessee Titans, participating in 28 of 60 snaps (47%). In turn, Wright saw his most work on the year, handling nine carries for 32 yards and failing to bring in his sole target. Backfield mate Jeff Wilson Jr. (knee) returned to full practice on Thursday; however, the last time both were healthy in Week 3, the rookie saw one less snap and one less carry than Wilson but out-gained him by three yards and more than doubled the veteran's yards per carry (8.5). The former Volunteer will not be recommended in Week 5, particularly against a stout New England ground defense. Still, he'll be an asset to monitor over the coming weeks and would be an intriguing handcuff if he could hold onto his increased volume.--Alex Ciulla

Miami Dolphins running back Jaylen Wright carried the ball two times for seven yards and added two receptions on three targets for six yards in Sunday's 32-26 overtime victory over the New York Jets. With Raheem Mostert (hip) ruled out, Wright was the backup behind starter De'Von Achane. However, his role is still inconsistent, as Miami's backup touches fluctuate weekly. The rookie will likely continue to struggle to see playing time for the rest of the year as long as Achane commands the backfield. Unless you have Achane on your roster, Wright should be on most league's waiver wire at this point of the season. His next opportunity will be a road matchup with the Houston Texans, who have been good against the run in 2024.--Jake Walker - RotoBaller

Miami Dolphins running back Jaylen Wright is coming off a game where he failed to record a single touch. De'Von Achane has a clear workhorse role in this backfield, but the backup running back splits are inconsistent. Although Raheem Mostert (hip) is questionable for Sunday's matchup against the New York Jets, he has three consecutive limited practices and a good chance to play. The uncertainty of how the snaps at backup running back are distributed will be a headache for fantasy managers for the foreseeable future. Until Wright proves he has a stable role in this offense, he should be on the waiver wire in most formats.--Jake Walker - RotoBaller

Miami Dolphins running back Jaylen Wright saw a bit more work during the team's 34-15 win over the New England Patriots. The rookie back received seven carries and turned them into 28 yards. He also had one target but wasn't able to haul it in. One silver lining is that Wright finished ahead of Raheem Mostert in terms of touches, but his upside is still very limited when all three backs are healthy. He'll look to find some more success in a short week as they play the Green Bay Packers on Thanksgiving.--Alex Fischbein - RotoBaller

Miami Dolphins running back Jaylen Wright is little more than a dart-throw option in Week 11 when his team lines up against the Las Vegas Raiders. The rookie back has seen his snap share dwindle over the last few weeks with the return of teammate Raheem Mostert, topping out at six carries since his return in Week 7. Week 10 was a low point for the 21-year-old, as he averaged just 0.6 yards on his five rush attempts (three yards). Wright has all the talent in the world but is buried on Miami's depth chart behind the veteran and second-year RB De'Von Achane -- who has dominated the Dolphins' snaps and touches out of the backfield. Until the former fourth-round pick's role is elevated, fantasy managers can continue to relegate him to their bench. He's RotoBaller's PPR RB42 for this weekend's slate of games.--Alex Ciulla
