Should I pick up Ollie Gordon off waivers in Week 4 after the De'Von Achane injury?

Answered 2026-09-29 · from the ChatFFB news wiki

Yes, absolutely — Ollie Gordon should be your top waiver priority this week.

With De'Von Achane suffering a season-ending torn ACL in Week 3, Gordon immediately stepped into the lead-back role and delivered: an 82% snap share, 17 carries, a goal-line TD, and 3 catches on 28 routes (from the [Ollie Gordon page]). Jaylen Wright was inactive in Week 3, so Gordon is the clear, unchallenged RB1 in Miami right now.

Coach Jeff Hafley has been grooming him as an every-down back, saying Gordon has "great speed, great size, and can catch the ball out of the backfield." The ceiling isn't elite (he averaged 2.8 yards per carry in 2025 vs. Achane's 5.7), but the volume alone makes him a must-add in all formats. RotoBaller lists him as a top Week 4 waiver priority, and he should be a viable RB2/FLEX play for the rest of the season.
