This should come as no surprise.
Devon Aann is set up for yet another top 10 performance this week against New England.
Miami's offense continues to struggle overall, but it doesn't matter how bleak things get for them.
Han is one of the most reliable running backs in the league.
It's not his rushing volume, really.
He hasn't reached 100 yards on the ground.
His touches on the ground have been solid, but his receiving work has been exceptional.
Over the past 4 weeks, he's seen between 4 to 8 targets a game.
And he ranks 3rd amongst most targeted running backs in the league, trailing behind only Alvin Kamara and Bruce Hall, a very remarkable feat considering that he has played one less game than them and endured that rough stretch without Tua.
He is one of the most explosive and dominant running backs in the league.
All it takes is one touchdown with his yardage to push him into that RB1 finish.
This week against a New England defense that has struggled to stop the run.
HN could finally break 100 yards on the ground and at a rushing touchdown and post 4 receptions for 40 yards.
