News: 7 hours agoMostert (knee/ankle/veteran rest) was listed as a non-participant in Wednesday's practice, Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.com reports.

Spin: Mostert has kicked off the last three weeks with 'DNPs' while managing knee and ankle issues before approaching Miami's last three contests without an injury designation. Chances are, that's a pattern that will be repeated ahead of Sunday's game against the Cowboys.

ESPN Fantasy Projection: Mostert re-signed with Miami during the offseason and the veteran is expected to share the backfield with Jeff Wilson Jr., as he did once Wilson was acquired last season. The duo played five full games together in 2022, with Mostert handling 44 carries (42% team share) and 15 targets (10%). That allowed only 48 fantasy points (9.5 per game). Mostert is an elite rusher (his career 5.38 YPC is fourth best in NFL history among RBs with 300-plus attempts), but durability is a major concern. He's played more than 11 games in a season twice in his career (2019, 2022) and he's also one of the league's oldest backs (31) and not much of a factor in the passing game (89 career targets). Mostert will be an underwhelming flex with Wilson and speedy rookie Devon Achane in the mix.
