Devon Achane Is Gaining Weight Ahead Of Rookie Season
2 years agoMiami Dolphins running back Devon Achane weighed just 188 pounds at the 2023 NFL Combine but has reportedly already gotten up to 192 pounds since being drafted in the third round. While four pounds may not seem like a big deal, every bit could help his chances to gain a significant workload in his rookie season. "I always knew that I could gain weight," said Achane. "I just didn't have the full offseason to gain weight because obviously, I was doing track. This is my first year not doing track, so I actually had the whole offseason to work out and be in football shape. So it kind of helped me with that." That said, he could pack on a few more pounds before his career begins. He is set to join a backfield with Jeff Wilson Jr. and Raheem Mostert, who have lengthy injury histories collectively, so Achane will serve as at least a solid bench stash in 2023.
