Jaylen Wright — Active
Wright exited Sunday's 28-25 win over the Jets late in the fourth quarter on account of the quad issue, but his availability for this weekend's game against the Patriots doesn't look to be in any peril. Since returning to action Week 4 against the Vikings following a one-game absence, Wright has been a clear second fiddle to Ollie Gordon out of the Miami backfield. In his last three appearances, Wright hasn't recorded any receptions and has logged no more than six carries in any contest.

Jaylen Wright — Questionable
Wright exited Miami's victory late in the fourth quarter with a quad injury. Wright filled a clear complementary role behind Ollie Gordon, and the former's health will be worth monitoring during Week 8 prep ahead of a home matchup against the Patriots next Sunday.
Jaylen Wright — Active
An upgrade to full participation Friday suggests Wright should be ready for his backup role behind Ollie Gordon, who has three of Miami's five TDs over the past three games.
Jaylen Wright — Active
It remains to be seen if Wright will have a designation on the final injury report, but either way, it sounds like he's ready to play. He'll likely be the team's No. 2 RB behind Ollie Gordon, who has dominated backfield work since De'Von Achane suffered an ACL tear.
Jaylen Wright — Questionable
Wright played through this foot injury in each of Miami's last two games prior to a Week 5 bye. He'll likely suit up Sunday against the Jets but cede most of the carries to Ollie Gordon as the Dolphins continue to search for their first win of the season.
Jaylen Wright — Questionable
According to Joe Schad of The Palm Beach Post, Wright looked good in practice despite having his reps managed. Wright has been battling a nagging foot issue for a chunk of the season but has been able to play in both of the last two games. Miami is coming off a Week 6 bye, so Wright should be closer to full health when the team faces off against the Jets this Sunday. He'll likely work in a complementary role behind Ollie Gordon, who averaged 7.0 yards per carry on 27 totes over the past two weeks following De'Von Achane's season-ending knee injury.
Jaylen Wright — Active
Wright was a mid-week addition to the Dolphins' injury report, after a sore foot limited his participation in practices Thursday and Friday. He took a questionable tag into the weekend but looks to be healthy enough to contribute out of the Miami backfield. In the wake of De'Von Achane's (knee) season-ending ACL tear, Ollie Gordon led the Dolphins with 100 rushing yards and a touchdown on nine carries to go with two catches for zero yards in a Week 4 loss to the Vikings. After that strong effort, Gordon is the favorite to pace the Miami backfield in snaps and touches once again in Week 5, but it's possible Wright cuts into his workload a bit more if he isn't slowed by the foot issue.

Wright missed Week 3 with a foot injury and stinger, before returning for Week 4 and splitting backfield work with Ollie Gordon early on. Gordon dominated snaps after breaking off a long run in the third quarter of the loss to Minnesota, and he was the favorite to take most of the carries this week even before Wright became a mid-week addition to the injury report. Wright is listed with a foot issue again, getting a questionable designation after limited practices Thursday and Friday. Meanwhile, the Dolphins claimed RB Kaytron Allen off waivers Friday, giving them another option in the backfield.

Jaylen Wright — Questionable
Wright practiced without limitations Wednesday but took a step back Thursday. He missed Miami's Week 3 loss to the Chiefs due to a foot injury but returned in Week 4 against the Vikings. Wright was outplayed by Ollie Gordon against Minnesota, and Gordon is likely in line to get the majority of rushing opportunities Sunday against the Bengals, regardless of Wright's status.
Jaylen Wright — Active
Wright actually started ahead of Ollie Gordon, but Gordon ended up out-snapping Wright 22 to 12 and turned his nine carries into 100 yards and a touchdown. Gordon also saw two targets to Wright's zero. Wright figures to see a handful of carries each week alongside Gordon, but the latter is the preferred back for fantasy.
Jaylen Wright — Active
Wright wasn't available for the Dolphins' Week 3 loss to the Chiefs while he tended to a pair of injuries, but after turning in a limited practice Wednesday and then upgrading to full activity Thursday, he looks like he'll be good to go for Sunday's game against the Vikings. With De'Von Achane (knee) out for the season, Wright and Ollie Gordon should both be in store for expanded opportunities out of the backfield, but it's not immediately clear which of the two will rank as the Dolphins' preferred option. Miami also plans to elevate one of Jarquez Hunter or Carlos Washington from the practice squad to give the team a third running back in Sunday's contest.
Jaylen Wright — Questionable
Wright didn't play in Week 3 against the Chiefs due to a stinger and foot injury, but stinger has been axed from the practice report to begin Week 4 prep, meaning only the foot issue is bothering him at the moment. If he's able to put all health concerns behind him and return to action Sunday at Minnesota, he'll be in line for a significant bump in playing time in the aftermath of De'Von Achane's torn ACL. Moving forward, Wright and Ollie Gordon are expected to pace the Dolphins backfield.
