MIAMI -- Dolphins running back De'Von Achane will play Sunday against the Washington Commanders, coach Mike McDaniel said Friday, giving the team its second-leading rusher.

Achane missed the Dolphins' win over the New York Jets in Week 12 after aggravating his knee injury the previous week in his initial return against the Las Vegas Raiders. The rookie had spent five weeks on injured reserve after originally suffering the knee injury in Week 5.

The third-round pick has rushed for 461 yards and has seven total touchdowns in five games this season, averaging an NFL-high 11.
