Miami Dolphins RB Raheem Mostert (knee) expects to play in Week 1, but head coach Mike McDaniel told reporters Tuesday, May 17, that ''(the Dolphins) are not going to rush it.''
''He's come too far to have a setback. He's diligently working day in, day out. When he's ready he'll be on the field,'' McDaniel added.
Huddle Up: McDaniel and Mostert are quite familiar with each other, as the two began working with each other in 2017 with the San Francisco 49ers. As such, Mostert should be considered the odds-on favorite to work in tandem with Chase Edmonds if he is ready for the opener, although Sony Michel could easily make a strong case to be the primary early-down back with a strong camp. Myles Gaskin also has a chance, but the odds are stacked against him considering Miami added three veterans at his position this offseason.

Miami Dolphins RBs Chase Edmonds, Myles Gaskin, Raheem Mostert, Salvon Ahmed and Sony Michel will be involved in a ''creative competition,'' according to assistant head coach/running backs coach Eric Studesville. ''You create a competitive environment and you let those guys go sort it out because that's how it's going to happen,'' Studesville said. ''They're going to sort it out as to who contributes and where and how and how much.''
Huddle Up: This is going to be a tough situation to deal with in your fantasy draft because anyone could wind up winning. On the other side of the coin, any of them could be cut. Edmonds and Gaskin are RB3s, but Mostert has shown game-breaking ability when his body isn't breaking down.

Free-agent RB Raheem Mostert (49ers) agreed to terms on a one-year contract with the Miami Dolphins Wednesday, March 16, worth $3.125 million.
Huddle Up: Mostert is familiar with head coach Mike McDaniel's offense and likely will share playing time with Chase Edmonds in 2022. He should be involved in the passing game and can be a possible flex option in fantasy leagues.

San Francisco 49ers impending free-agent RB Raheem Mostert has been informed that the 49ers are interested in re-signing him, according to his agent.
Huddle Up: The 49ers likely will use Elijah Mitchell as their starter next season, but Mostert could have a decent role in the offense if he returns to the 49ers. He should have some fantasy value no matter where he plays in 2022.

San Francisco 49ers impending free-agent RB Raheem Mostert could be a possible target for the Miami Dolphins during free agency because he has played for head coach Mike McDaniel over the last few seasons, in the opinion of The Miami Herald's Barry Jackson.
Huddle Up: Mostert missed most of the season because of injury and probably will have to find a new team since Elijah Mitchell has earned the starting job for the 49ers. The Dolphins have used multiple running backs over the last few years, so Mostert could see most of the work if he joins Miami. He would be a No. 2 or No. 3 running back if he signs with the Dolphins.

San Francisco 49ers RB Raheem Mostert (knee) announced via social media that he will undergo season-ending surgery on the knee injury he suffered in Week 1.
Huddle Up: It's a brutal blow for Mostert, who lasted only two carries before exiting the opener. As a 29-year-old who will turn 30 next spring, he could find it difficult to find another starting job on the open market. His absence opened the door for Elijah Mitchell to explode onto the scene against the Detroit Lions, and the sixth-round rookie did more than enough to hold onto the starting job for Week 2 against the Philadelphia Eagles. With Mostert's return no longer a question, Mitchell figures to attract hefty FAAB bids this week.

San Francisco 49ers RB Raheem Mostert (knee) chipped off a piece of knee cartilage early in Week 1 against the Detroit Lions and is expected to need at least eight weeks before he can return, according to head coach Kyle Shanahan.
Huddle Up: Mostert lasted all of two carries before this happened in Week 1, opening the door for rookie Elijah Mitchell to go off for more than 100 yards in his pro debut. Complicating matters here is that Shanahan made third-round pick Trey Sermon a healthy scratch, although there is no way to tell if he did so because Sermon somehow moved down the depth chart or if he was inactive because Mitchell and JaMycal Hasty offered something to special teams. The odds are Sermon will play a much more critical role in Week 2. Regardless, Mitchell should be a priority addition off waivers this week.

Updating a previous report, San Francisco 49ers RB Raheem Mostert (knee) will have an MRI on his knee Monday, Sept. 13, after leaving the Week 1 game against the Detroit Lions.
Huddle Up: With Mostert departing early, Elijah Mitchell became the workhorse in the San Francisco backfield, and he went over 100 yards with a touchdown. If you need an injury replacement, Mitchell certainly looked like he could handle carrying the mail on a regular basis.

Updating a previous report, San Francisco 49ers RB Raheem Mostert (knee) will not return to the Week 1 game because of his knee injury.
Huddle Up: Fantasy players should know more about Mostert's status in the next day or two. Trey Sermon could see a majority of the work at running back if Mostert misses an extended period of time and would be at least a flex option.
