I think you will see plenty of running backs Jaylen Wright and Ollie Gordon II this week and during the year. Achane will still be the dominant back, but I think the coaching staff knows they have to keep him fresh all season

STACKED’s take

Positive signalRole

Wright will see significant snaps as Achane's primary backup in committee.

Wright is expected to see significant snaps and touches throughout the 2026 season as part of a running back committee. The source states Wright is closer to a true replacement for De'Von Achane and will be used to keep Achane fresh all season, ensuring the best player is still effective in Week 18. The coaching staff will rotate Wright and Ollie Gordon II to manage Achane's workload, with Wright serving as the more direct complement to Achane's skill set.
