De'Von Achane vs TreVeyon Henderson: Who Should You Start?
There is a real production gap between these two running backs. De'Von Achane (Miami Dolphins) averaged 18.1 PPG over 16 games in 2025, outscoring TreVeyon Henderson (New England Patriots, 11.1 PPG) by 7.0 points per week. That separation would need a significant matchup swing to overcome.
That 7.0-point weekly advantage for De'Von Achane is meaningful but not automatic. Fantasy football is a week-to-week sport, and the answer to "who should I start" often changes based on opponent, recent form, and game environment. Season averages set the baseline; weekly context makes the call.
De'Von Achane is the receiving back in this matchup, turning 67 targets into 488 yards, while TreVeyon Henderson profiles as a more traditional rusher with 911 rushing yards and 9 touchdowns. In PPR and half-PPR formats De'Von Achane carries the higher weekly floor. In standard leagues the gap tightens considerably.
One scheduling note: De'Von Achane is off Week 6 and TreVeyon Henderson Week 14. If these two are on your roster, you will need a fill-in running back for both weeks. DraftCall flags bye conflicts so you can plan ahead rather than panic on waivers.
