"Achane has had a positive outlook on playing all week since hurting his ribs in last Sunday's win against the New York Jets. McDaniel said Achane could've re-entered the game if needed in an emergency, but the Dolphins were well in front, winning 34-10 at MetLife Stadium. Achane said Friday his ribs have progressively felt better since the game. He has experimented with different forms of padded protection under his red, non-contact jersey at practice this week to see how it feels."
"There also is no worry over cornerback Jack Jones' status for Monday night after he surfaced on the Friday injury report with a new knee injury. "I'm expecting him to be full-go, too," McDaniel said. "That's barring any setbacks." Jones would be in line to handle starting cornerback duties opposite Rasul Douglas, the AFC's reigning Defensive Player of the Week."
De'Von Achane is primed to play Monday night at the Pittsburgh Steelers after a rib injury. He has progressively felt better since hurting his ribs in last Sunday's win against the New York Jets and tested padded protection under his non-contact jersey at practice. He could have re-entered the Jets game in an emergency but remained sidelined while Miami led 34-10. Jack Jones surfaced with a new knee issue but is expected to be full-go barring setbacks. Chop Robinson has managed an ailing oblique and is ready to play in Pennsylvania. Aaron Brewer is cleared to play through an ankle injury. Andrew Meyer practiced well but is unlikely to be activated for Monday night.
