Miami Dolphins running back De'Von Achane is making progress in his recovery from a rib injury sustained during a game against the New York Jets. According to the Miami Herald, Achane was a limited participant in practice on Thursday, donning a red non-contact jersey and a flak jacket to help protect his injury.

Coach Mike McDaniel indicated that Achane is motivated to play in the upcoming game against the Pittsburgh Steelers, although it remains uncertain if he will be able to perform at his usual capacity. Meanwhile, the Steelers are facing their own injury concerns as star pass rusher T.J.

Watt was hospitalized for further evaluation of his lungs after experiencing discomfort during practice. This injury raises questions about Watt's availability for the game on Monday. The Steelers confirmed that Coach Mike Tomlin will provide an update on Watt's condition as it becomes available.

Watt has been a critical part of the Steelers' defense, contributing significantly with 53 tackles and seven sacks this season, and his absence could have a substantial impact on the team's performance against the Dolphins.
