What happened: De'Von Achane said he wants to lead the league in rushing this season. He set the goal as the 2026 preseason begins.
Why it matters: Achane is coming off a 1,350-yard season, giving him a credible base for a title run. Reaching the mark would require another jump in both production and workload.
By the numbers: Achane gained 1,350 yards on 238 carries in 2025, an average of 5.7 yards per attempt, and scored 13 rushing touchdowns.
What to watch: His early-season carry volume and place among the NFL rushing leaders will show whether the target is within reach.
