Dolphins GM Prioritizes Achane, Brewer Extensions

Published 31 March 2026

At the NFL's annual league meetings in Arizona on Monday, Miami Dolphins general manager JonEric Sullivan declared running back DeVon Achane and center Aaron Brewer as top priorities for contract extensions, while firmly dismissing trade speculation surrounding Achane.

Sullivan, who took over the Dolphins' front office amid a roster overhaul, emphasized Achane's value to the team's rebuilding efforts. "There is zero effort on my end to move Achane," Sullivan told reporters. "He's a difference-maker for us, and I see him being here and having a lot of success." The 24-year-old Achane enters the final year of his rookie deal, a four-year contract worth about $5.4 million signed after the Dolphins selected him in the third round of the 2023 draft. In 2025, Achane earned his first Pro Bowl nod, leading the league with 5.7 yards per carry while rushing for 1,350 yards and eight touchdowns on 238 attempts. He also caught 67 passes for 488 yards and four scores, contributing to 12 total touchdowns. Over his career, Achane has amassed 3,057 rushing yards and 22 touchdowns, along with 172 receptions for 1,277 yards and 13 receiving touchdowns, averaging 5.6 yards per carry.
