Malik Willis scolds Ollie Gordon for unsportsmanlike conduct, coach Jeff Hafley approves Willis' leadership
Samaje Perine of the Bengals is highlighted as a strong anytime touchdown bet for Week 8 against the Tennessee Titans, given his recent usage and potential goal-line role. The article also mentions Ollie Gordon of the Dolphins in the context of touchdown bets, and notes other players like Lamar Jackson, Josh Allen, Jahmyr Gibbs, Bijan Robinson, Mike Gesicki, Kyle Pitts, Tucker Kraft, Chase Brown, and Braelon Allen

Raiders running back Ashton Jeanty is having a terrible year , but he thinks he can turn that around on Sunday against the Jets. Jeanty said in the Raiders’ locker room on Wednesday that he thinks there are players on the Jets’ defense who don’t want to tackle him, and that excites him when he sees it on tape. “I think we can definitely get the run game going,” Jeanty said when asked about the Jets’ defense. “Get back on track and really get after these guys. A couple guys out there that don’t really want to tackle, but I’m not going to say names.” The Raiders started the season 3-0 but are now 3-4. Jeanty said that during this losing streak, he and his teammates are doing a good job of challenging each other to improve without playing the blame game. “I think the main thing is we’ve just to to stick together. You lose games, everybody starts questioning things,” Jeanty said. “Most importantly, not pointing fingers. Everybody has to work together. It’s a team sport.” Jeanty is averaging just 3.1 yards per carry this season, and that needs to improve in a hurry. He believes it can improve, against a Jets defense that allowed Dolphins running back Ollie Gordon to rush for 103 yards and a touchdown last week. If it doesn’t improve against a Jets defense that doesn’t want to tackle, it may be time to ask bigger questions about why Jeanty can’t get going
The Dolphins secured their first win of the season, defeating the Jets 28-25. Malik Willis was instrumental, throwing two touchdowns and running for another. The Jets' defense struggled against Willis, Ollie Gordon, and Greg Dulcich, while their offense, despite flashes, was hampered by turnovers and missed opportunities. Geno Smith's interception and late-game timeouts by coach Aaron Glenn proved costly for the Jets, who now fall to 2-5
The Dolphins have Jeff Hafley is in position for his first win as an NFL head coach. Malik Willis’s two-yard touchdown run with six seconds left in the first half has Miami up 21-7 on the Jets at halftime at MetLife Stadium. Willis also threw a touchdown during the best half of play that the Dolphins have turned in this season. Willis is 10-of-13 for 128 yards and he’s run five times for 37 yards, including a five-yard scramble on fourth down that helped set up his touchdown run. Running back Ollie Gordon has 14 carries for 58 yards and a touchdown while tight end Greg Dulcich has five catches for 86 yards. Gordon’s touchdown at the end of the first drive of the game gave the Dolphins their first lead of the season, but it only lasted a couple of minutes before Geno Smith hit tight end Mason Taylor for a game-tying touchdown. The Dolphins moved back in front on Willis’s touchdown pass and the Jets were driving again when Smith threw a pass right to Dolphins rookie safety Michael Taaffe. Taaffe read the play perfectly and jumped the route to create a turnover in the red zone and the Jets never threatened to score more points before the break. They will get the ball to start the third quarter, but their defense will need to improve by leaps and bounds to pull off a comeback
The Dolphins took the lead in their sixth game of the season against the Jets
Ollie Gordon II has been named the Miami Dolphins' Most Valuable Player for Week Five of the 2026 season
The Dolphins have added a running back. Miami has claimed Kaytron Allen off of waivers after Washington let him go earlier this week, the team announced on Friday. A sixth-round pick in this year’s draft, Allen had appeared in all four games for Washington, taking 12 carries for 41 yards. He also appeared on special teams, taking 29 snaps on the unit. The Dolphins had a need for more depth at running back, particularly after De’Von Achane suffered a torn ACL. Jaylen Wright started for the Dolphins at running back last week, though Ollie Gordon was the leading rusher with 100 yards on nine carries
Ollie Gordon II had a strong performance in Miami's loss to the Vikings, rushing for 100 yards and a touchdown

The Vikings never reached the end zone today. To beat the Dolphins, they didn’t need to. Minnesota won 15-10 on the strength of five Will Reichard field goals. The Vikings were without their best player, wide receiver Justin Jefferson, but they got a great game out of tight end T.J. Hockenson, who caught all 13 passes thrown to him, for 119 yards. On Hockenson’s last catch, he purposely went to the ground just short of the goal line at the two-minute warning, which was smart clock management as the Dolphins were out of timeouts and the Vikings just had to kneel down to win it from there. Vikings running back Aaron Jones carried a big workload, with 20 carries for 94 yards, and while quarterback Kyler Murray wasn’t great, he was good enough on a day when the Vikings didn’t need to score much. It didn’t help Murray that the Vikings lost the left side of their offensive line, as left guard Donovan Jackson (knee) and left tackle Christian Darrisaw (neck) both exited the game with injuries. The bright spot for the Dolphins was running back Ollie Gordon, who had a 100-yard game in his first start in place of the injured De’Von Achane. But Gordon was just about the only player on the Dolphins’ offense who got the job done today. Miami quarterback Malik Willis struggled to find open receivers, and the Vikings’ pass rush didn’t give him much time. At 0-4, the Dolphins look like the worst team in the NFL. At 4-0, the Vikings look like one of the league’s most pleasant surprises
Gordon carried the ball nine times for 100 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 15-10 loss to the Vikings. He also caught both his targets for zero yards. On a day when Malik Willis and the passing game could get very little going against a tough Minnesota defense, Gordon was Miami's only reliable weapon. His longest gain went for 53 yards, and he scored his team's only TD on a 12-yard jaunt late in the third quarter. With De'Von Achane (knee) lost for the rest of the season, Gordon has staked his claim to taking over the lead role in the backfield -- Jaylen Wright, his main competition, managed just seven rushing yards on five carries. Gordon will look to build on this performance in Week 5 at home against the Bengals
Ollie Gordon II leads Dolphins in rushing, outpacing Jaylen Wright amid De'Von Achane’s injury
Key starters are out, forcing teams to shuffle backups and stream options for Week 4
Miami Dolphins running back Jaylen Wright (foot) will be back in action after missing last week's contest. He was ruled out with a stinger and a foot injury before the Dolphins played the Chiefs last week, so he wasn't able to step in after starting RB De'Von Achane (knee) left the game. Ollie Gordon II stepped up instead and produced a solid line by rushing 17 times for 41 yards and a touchdown and catching all three of his targets for 14 yards. Wright has flashed upside in the past when given more work and was actually listed as the team's RB1 with Gordon as his backup coming into this week. Wright was the second RB before Achane's injury, but the timeshare is unpredictable heading into this week's very difficult matchup on the road against the Vikings' excellent run defense. Due to the uncertainty and the matchup, Wright is only the RB50 in RotoBaller's Week 4 rankings, but he has the potential to be an important contributor in Miami for the rest of the season. Stashing him on your bench to see how Sunday's workload is split is a strategy that makes sense
Miami Dolphins running back Ollie Gordon II will step into an expanded role in Week 4, and he is definitely a deep-league fantasy option even in a tough matchup with the Vikings. Gordon stepped in last week for De'Von Achane (knee), who was lost for the season. He played 84% of snaps and took 17 carries for 41 rushing yards and a touchdown, while catching all three of his targets for 14 receiving yards. His efficiency was not impressive in the struggling offense, but he should be in a large enough role to be a touchdown-dependent play. He's only a fringe option in standard-sized leagues due to a very tough matchup against the Vikings, who have allowed zero RB touchdowns and the fourth-fewest fantasy points to the position. He will also likely share time with Jaylen Wright, who missed Week 3 with a foot injury. In a tough matchup and an uncertain timeshare, Gordon is the RB36 this week in RotoBaller's rankings, but he definitely has the opportunity to win playing time for the rest of the season in Achane's absence, so stash him on your bench in standard-sized leagues and see how the week plays out
Miami Dolphins running back Jaylen Wright (stinger/foot) should be good to go for Sunday's game against Minnesota, according to David Furones. Wright opened the week as a limited participant before practicing in full Thursday, and head coach Jeff Hafley said Friday that he expects him to be available. Wright missed last week's loss to Kansas City and has only three carries for 10 yards through two appearances this season. His return comes with a much bigger opportunity waiting in Miami's backfield. Ollie Gordon II should remain involved after handling 20 touches last week, so how the Dolphins split the work between the two backs will be one of the bigger fantasy questions to watch Sunday
