The Miami Dolphins released veteran running back Sony Michel on Tuesday, providing some clarity to their crowded running back room.
Chase Edmonds is expected to lead this backfield, despite durability concerns. Edmonds, a talented pass-catching back, should be rostered in all formats and remains a value with an average draft position of 93 in PPR leagues. Though his season was limited due to injury in 2021, Edmonds was highly efficient, averaging 5.1 yards per attempt and catching 43 of his 53 targets for 311 yards. He produced double-digit PPR points in eight of his 12 games played with Arizona last season and he’s currently going in the eighth round of fantasy football drafts.
