Mostert elaborates on his response to the Wright draft pick.

The Miami Dolphins running back is coming off the best season of his NFL career

Raheem Mostert, fresh off his standout season in the NFL, which earned him his first Pro Bowl invitation, welcomed dynamic rookie De’Von Achane to the Miami Dolphins backfield. Reflecting on his initial reaction to the addition of Jaylen Wright, Mostert acknowledged the typical draft drama but expressed genuine excitement about having another talented player on the team. He sees it as an opportunity to mentor and support Wright within the offense.

Wright’s exceptional speed adds another dimension to an already fast Dolphins lineup, featuring players like Mostert, Achane, Tyreek Hill, and Jaylen Waddle. Mostert emphasized the value of speed in maximizing offensive capabilities, highlighting the versatility it brings to the team’s strategy.

Despite the addition of Wright, Mostert remains a key figure in the Dolphins’ offense. Setting franchise records for rushing touchdowns and overall touchdowns while surpassing the 1,000-yard rushing mark for the first time in his career, Mostert earned a contract extension. While his guaranteed money extends only through the upcoming season, Mostert is determined to maintain his high level of performance and push beyond the typical expectations for running backs over 30. He aims to continue elevating his game and contributing to the team’s pursuit of a championship.
