Raheem Mostert Out for Dolphins vs. Jets

Miami Dolphins running back Raheem Mostert is expected to miss the upcoming game against the New York Jets due to a hip injury, marking the fourth game he has missed this season. Mostert suffered the injury during a Week 11 victory against the Las Vegas Raiders and has had a challenging season, accumulating only 236 rushing yards and two touchdowns in nine games. With Mostert sidelined, rookie Jaylen Wright and veteran Jeff Wilson Jr. are anticipated to take on more carries, while De'Von Achane is expected to continue leading the backfield. Mostert's struggles this season contrast sharply with his previous year's performance, where he set franchise records for rushing touchdowns and total touchdowns. Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel acknowledged the multiple factors affecting Mostert's performance, emphasizing his value as a teammate despite the setbacks. The team hopes to maintain playoff hopes against the Jets as they adapt without Mostert's presence.
