Willis' low RB target rate (12.2%) threatens Achane's receiving volume.

Willis' arrival as Miami's QB1 threatens De'Von Achane's receiving production. Willis targeted RBs on just 12.2% of his attempts in his two 2025 starts (and 12.5% in 2024), well below the Dolphins' 25.4% team target share. Mobile QBs typically see receptions and yardage dip when scrambling and moving the chains. Willis' mobility and tendency to run instead of check down create a mismatch with Achane's pass-catching profile, potentially reducing Achane's targets from 6 per game (with Tua) to closer to 2.5 per game.
