ESPN has identified Miami Dolphins running back De'Von Achane as a potential Hall of Famer heading into the 2026 season. Achane earned his first Pro Bowl selection after accumulating 1,838 scrimmage yards in 2025. His career totals stand at 3,057 rushing yards and 1,277 receiving yards across three seasons. Despite the Dolphins' weaker roster this year, Achane is expected to take on a larger role with increased touches due to a lack of surrounding talent. His performance in 2026 could significantly impact his Hall of Fame candidacy.
