Wilson may be in line to handle increased backfield work Thursday against Buffalo with Raheem Mostert (chest) ruled out for the contest and De'Von Achane (ankle) considered a game-time decision, Chris Brown of the Bills Radio Network reports.
EDGE Analysis
Wilson was already involved in Miami's running back rotation during the team's Week 1 win over Jacksonville, as his five carries for 26 yards ranked a close third on the team behind Achane and Mostert. For Week 2, Wilson should at the very least handle expanded reps with Mostert out, but if Achane also ends up unable to play or is limited, the bulk of the Dolphins' backfield reps may fall on the veteran's shoulders. Rookie fourth-round pick Jaylen Wright is also likely to have a role after having been a healthy inactive Week 1, but this early in the season, Miami may want to lean on more experienced options.
