The Miami Dolphinstraded away wide receiver Jaylen Waddle to the Denver Broncos this offseason, signaling that a rebuild could be on the way, and other star players could also be available for the right price, such as running back De'Von Achane.

Achane had a breakout 2025 campaign with 1,350 rushing yards and eight touchdowns. The 24-year-old also added 488 yards on 67 receptions and four scores through the air.

Though Miami is planning on rebuilding its roster and could get a lot of draft capital by trading Achane, it doesn't sound like that's the plan.

Dolphins GM Jon-Eric Sullivan shuts down Achane trade rumors​

During a press conference on Tuesday, Dolphins general manager Jon-Eric Sullivan made it clear that the franchise won't be trading Achane and is actually working on an extension with the Pro Bowl running back.

"He's not available for trade," Sullivan said of Achane via The List - Dolphins Podcast on X. "Things are going good. We've had some positive conversations (about a new contract) over the past couple days. Trending in the right direction. He's very important to what we do."

Trading Achane, a young and explosive running back still on his rookie deal, wouldn't make any sense for the Dolphins. Retaining the Texas A&M product for the future and signing him to an extension would be a logical move.

Seahawks, Giants, and Vikings delivered bad news​

The Seattle Seahawks, New York Giants, and Minnesota Vikings could be interested in trading for Achane, but it looks like they won't even get a chance.

Seattle has yet to effectively replace Super Bowl MVP Kenneth Walker, who left for the Kansas City Chiefs in free agency. Achane would've been an electric replacement.

New York and Minnesota don't have a dire need for a running back, but Achane would've been an upgrade over both teams' current starters, Cam Skattebo for the Giants and Aaron Jones for the Vikings.

With Achane likely staying put in Miami, all three franchises will have to look elsewhere if they want to add talent to their running backs ahead of the 2026 season.
