2025 Fantasy Outlook
A year ago someone might have sooner figured Gordon a first-round pick than a sixth-round pick, but things can change quickly for collegiate running back prospects, especially when their numbers fall like they did for Gordon between 2023 and 2024. The sixth-round pick out of Oklahoma State was a veritable Heisman candidate in 2023, running for 1,732 yards and 21 touchdowns at 6.1 yards per carry, but in 2024 those figures fell to 880 yards and 13 touchdowns at 4.6 yards per carry. Those numbers aren't so bad if you split the difference, but the gap between those two years will always be jarring. At 6-foot-1, 226, Gordon has a somewhat prolonged stride which can trip him up when his offensive line gets caved in, but once he picks up momentum he's a concerning proposition for a squared-up defender. Things broke in his favor in Miami this summer, with Alexander Mattison suffering a season-ending injury and both De'Von Achane (calf) and Jaylen Wright (leg) getting banged up in August. The Dolphins seemingly expect Achane back for Week 1, but Gordon could be the No. 2 running back and take some carries. Read Past Outlooks

Gordon (ankle) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
ANALYSIS
Gordon managed to play through his ankle injury during Miami's win over the bills in Week 10, though he was relegated to the No. 3 backfield role behind De'Von Achane and Jaylen Wright. If Gordon is able to upgrade to full practice reps prior to Sunday's matchup against the Commanders in Madrid, he could again overtake Wright for the top backup gig.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Slotting in as RB2 in Week 1
RBMiami Dolphins
September 5, 2025
Gordon is set to occupy the second spot on Miami's running back depth chart against the Colts in Week 1, as De'Von Achane doesn't have an injury designation while Jaylen Wright has been ruled out due to a knee injury, per Travis Wingfield of the Dolphins' official site.
ANALYSIS
Achane has been bothered by a calf injury but practiced without limitations Friday and is set to get the bulk of the workload in Miami's backfield Sunday. Gordon should still get some opportunities in Wright's absence, and goal-line opportunities could go the 226-pound Gordon's way over the 188-pound Achane.
