Overview
- Coach Mike McDaniel said Saturday that Achane is "ready to roll" barring a setback after limited practices following a Week 14 rib injury.
- Through 13 games, Achane has 1,126 rushing yards and 55 receptions, powering a Miami run game central to its recent four-game winning streak.
- T.J. Watt is out after surgery for a partially collapsed lung, stripping Pittsburgh of its premier pass rusher and edge setter.
- Matchup analysis points to Miami attacking the perimeter against a Steelers run defense graded in the 20s and further taxed by other defensive line injuries.
- At 6-7 visiting the 7-6 Steelers on Monday night, Miami chases a late playoff push as Pittsburgh seeks to control possession with a recommitment to the run.
